Cover art for The Factory Gates lyrics by Kaiser Chiefs

Hi, I am the one who originally wrote this down earlier today from ear. After some checking I was pretty sure I wrote down the correct lyrics. However, after submitting, the lyrics got changed. I don't know how this happened, but these are in no way the lyrics to The Factory Gates. I have already submitted an edit, and I hope the problem gets solved. In the mean-time, here are the original lyrics

So this is the age of the train All aboard through the labour exchange My mind is running away with me

I'm a sharp one's sales campaign Trapped behind yellow cellophane My mind is running away with

Everything I ever learned Comes knocking at my head What you thought was way Too much is not enough

They tell you day after day To make your way through the factory gates What you make on the factory floor You take straight to the company store

They tell you day after day To make your way through the factory gates 'Til they can't break your will anymore You are contractually tied to death's door

I never left the town I was made in Wicker's World, Michael Palin My mind is running away with me

I record every one of my feelings Like trying bread bags onto the railings My mind is running away with

Every one you ever loved Is knocking down your door What you thought was way Too much is not enough

They tell you day after day To make your way through the factory gates What you make on the factory floor You take straight to the company store

They tell you day after day To make your way through the factory gates 'Til they can't break your will anymore You are contractually tied to death's door

Not enough, not enough I want wider than this island Not enough, not enough I want brighter than a diamond

And everything you've ever known Is in these city walls What you thought was way Too much, is not enough, it's not enough

But when you thought "It's way too much" It's not enough

They tell you day after day To make your way through the factory gates What you make on the factory floor You take straight to the company store

They tell you day after day To make your way through the factory gates 'Til they can't break your will anymore You are contractually tied to death's door

'Til they can't break your will anymore You are contractually tied to death's door
