THE SYSTEM (3:04)
Russ McIvor
(SOCAN)
I left my parcel with this cute little package named Alice
At the bus depot back in Dallas
I just found out it got lost in the system

Well the airport ain't my favorite place
When they look you sincerely in the face And say your reservation ain't in their system
I say buck it, buck the system Throw it right out the door
And the one that invented the system Should be knocked right to the floor

I told the man at the bank I made my payment on time
While my truck got hooked to the tow-truck line
It seems my cheque got lost in the system
I said buck it, buck the system Throw it right out the door And the one that invented the system Should be knocked right to the floor.

Well my buddies car was broken into today
He seemed a bit ticked and somewhat crazed
They told him to leave it in the hands of the justice system

He said, buck it, buck the system Throw it right out the door And the one that invented the system Should be knocked right to the floor
I said buck it, buck the system Throw it right out the door...
And the one that invented the system
I said the one that invented the system
I said the one that invented the system Should be knocked to the floor!
