The world seems so small
You try standing tall
Keep running, the cheese you must eat
Forget your aching feet
You are a Hamster in a wheel
Nobody cares what you feel
Cursed to run barefoot
Focused on what lay above
Taunting you to reach out
Hiding the truth, you will never be
Your real goal should be to be free
The moment you realize this
The sound of the lash making you run faster
Don’t you dare disobey the master
You are just a hamster in a wheel
Going round and round
Chasing a false destiny
You question your reality
But there’s no stopping the wheel
Keep running till the clock runs out
Run till your shadow fades
The treat keeps slipping away
So close! maybe next time
The illusion of a life
keeps you from the knife
You are just a hamster in a system of wheels
See the world above, see wheels just like yours
All hamsters stuck like you
There’s the lash
Don’t slow down, keep running
Keep the wheel spinning
Amuse your master
Don’t stop Mr. Hamster
