And no one ever smiled

And began to breed

They started off beneath the knowledge tree

                                                C

                                   G
And marching along the railroad tracks

                                        Am
They smiled real wide for the camera lenses

                                 F
As they made it past the enemy lines

                                         C G Am F G    C G Am F G
Just to become enslaved in the assembly lines
