When they found you, you were driven and hungry
   You were playin' for your life then
   You were livin' for the chance to be heard
   What they promised, what they offered
   Was more than you'd ever hoped for
   To walk away, ya' know that would've been absurd
   And talk about absurdity, it was madness
   It was everything in excess
   It was too much, too many, and too little time
   It was faceless people in jackets and ties
   Who thought of you when they made love to their wives
   Somehow, it wasn't what you had in mind
  
   Chorus:
  
   Tell `em you're Takin' It Back
   So they might as well get used to the idea
   You're Takin' It Back, those cooperation days are over
   You got no one to blame but yourself
   So don't put it on nobody else
   Put it behind you, start over, today
  
   There were parties and photos and televised award shows
   And covers of magazines
   There was gold and platinum and everyone was smiling
   You were coming apart at the seems
   There were jerk offs too numerous to mention
   When everybody shared the dream
   But when it came time to share the nightmare
   They were conveniently nowhere to be seen
  
   (Chorus)
  
   Oh they'll argue what they gave you was exactly what you wanted
   And just to be fair, ya' know that some of it's true
   That's why ya' gotta be careful, `bout your wishes
   Take your time and think `em over
   Sometimes those wishes just might come true
  
   Tell `em you're Takin' It Back
   So they might as well get used to the idea
   You're Takin' It Back, those cooperation days are over
   Tell `em you've had enough, and if they don't like it it's tough
   You're Takin' It Back, those cooperation days are over
   You're Takin' It Back
   Tell `em you're Takin' It Back
