lyrics

Excellence inside your brain
A lie we’ve been told
False relation between gain and pain
A lie we preserve and hold

The best, the brightest, the better yourself
To be they have told us to
How to get it, no matter
As long as it's all we do

Excellence inside your brain
A little lie you have been told

Excellence inside your brain
A little lie
A little lie
