All Walks Of Life Lyrics
[Zack sings:]
SHOUT!
[Sean sings:]
In the middle class
I've been hiding
Chained up to a dog on a leash
All walks of life here are welcomed
To train you past on a new day
To get in
You need no invitation
No question
No belief
Just leave your mind where you found it
We have no use for thinking
[Zack sings:]
You're right so...
What is it they've done for me?
Wally
You're right so...
What is it they've done for me?
Wally
[Sean sings:]
Put me somewhere
I can't get out of
Just leave me close to the door
And I'll come in like I came out
Guess my life's not worth the pain
To wake
Alarms the brain
Alarms inside with a sudden gape
And there's all walks across... I,
I realize it's watching me
[Zack sings:]
You're right so...
What is it they've done for me?
Wally
You're right so...
What is it they've done for me?
Wally
I reach out for my brothers
They are like me
A sheltered life comes short of being free
'Cuz you know I won't stop until I'm free
[Sean sings:]
Check it! Check it!
[Zack sings:] IN THE MIDDLE CLASS RUT!!
[Sean sings:] I'm waiting
[Zack sings:] IN THE MIDDLE CLASS RUT!!
[Sean sings:] I'm waiting
[Zack sings:] IN THE MIDDLE CLASS RUT!!
[Sean sings:] I'm waiting
SHOUT!
In the middle class
I've been hiding
Chained up to a dog on a leash
All walks of life here are welcomed
To train you past on a new day
You need no invitation
No question
No belief
Just leave your mind where you found it
We have no use for thinking
You're right so...
What is it they've done for me?
Wally
What is it they've done for me?
Wally
Put me somewhere
I can't get out of
Just leave me close to the door
And I'll come in like I came out
Guess my life's not worth the pain
Alarms the brain
Alarms inside with a sudden gape
And there's all walks across... I,
I realize it's watching me
You're right so...
What is it they've done for me?
Wally
What is it they've done for me?
Wally
They are like me
A sheltered life comes short of being free
'Cuz you know I won't stop until I'm free
Check it! Check it!

"You know how I define the economic and social classes in this country? The upper class keeps all of the money, pays none of the taxes. The middle class pays all of the taxes, does all of the work. The poor are there... just to scare the shit out of the middle class. Keep 'em showing up at those jobs." - George Carlin
I feel that this quote is a bit relative to the song.
"In the middle class I've been hiding Chained up to a dog on a leash All walks of life here are welcomed To train you past on a new day

The beginning (or maybe the entire song) is like an explanation for the band name, which reminded me of the George Carlin quote.
