[Verse 1]
I wish there was a drug
That could make people understand
That you’re not tryin’ to steal
Just keep what you got
Oh, you wonder where you are
When only hope remains
Workin’ all day
Just to make yourself
A ball and chain
A ball and chain
A ball and chain
A ball and chain

[Verse 2]
Won’t you tell me why
This can’t be a butterfly guy
Why they holdin’ us back
Why they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Ridin’ on the wheels of steel
We’re headin’ down the line
[Chorus]
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks

[Verse 3]
We’ve had our fill
We’ve had our fill of dollar bills
We’re spitting out
Spitting out your bitter pill
There’s a way that we could break through
If there was just one time to jump the queue

[Chorus]
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks

[Bridge]
Now dinnae gie me that old excuse
A’v had it up tae here wi your abuse
Ye know [?] nae turnin back
A need the light, the right tae make ma track
Cut the ball, cut the chain, let the queen bee die
A’ll be a man, A’ll be alive, A’ll be a butterfly
(makin’ tracks)
Why are they holdin’ us back
Why are they holdin’ us back

[Verse 4]
I wanna smoothe these muscles and [?]
[?] things [?]
Woke up this mornin’, what a beautiful day
Only to find my future had blown away

[Verse 5]
I wish there was a drug
That could make people understand
That you’re not tryin’ to steal
Just get back what you had
Oh, you wonder where you are
When only hope remains
Workin’ all day
Just to make yourself
A ball and chain (why are they holdin’ us back)
A ball and chain (why are they holdin’ us back)
A ball and chain (why are they holdin’ us back)
A ball and chain

[Chorus]
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
Why are they holdin’ us back from makin’ tracks
