I don't write a lot of really hard rock songs, but in the case of this one, the subject matter seemed to require a little anger.
When I wrote this, I was getting really fed up with my job and looking forward to retirement in a better world.

LYRICS:
Monday morning Six AM
You can’t believe Ya have to do it all again
For the next five days You gotta sell your soul
to the same damn people
who send ya the bills that put you into this HOLE
But there Ain’t no use in fighting
You know you have to do … Whatever They Say …
… Whatever They Say …
_____________________________________
The TV tells you … You need to buy these things
It’s the American Way Courtesy of Beijing
Give away your life Pour it down the drain
Like a rat on a wheel
You never get a chance to break that chain
Because there Ain’t no use in fighting
You know you have to do …. Whatever They Say …
… Whatever They Say …
_____________________________________
If you follow their rules you end up in debt
Tired, broke and Older is all you’re gonna get
It might just be time that we let them know
If they keep on squeezin’ us things are bound to blow
But if we all stand together
We won't have to do … Whatever They Say …
… Whatever They Say …r
