Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Holdups and hangups
Crashes and bangs
Getups and dust-offs
Choices and chains
It's give in and go home
Or get back in the game
When you're free to make choices
You're bound to make chains
[Verse 2]
So pick your poison
This is your chance
It's sit down and listen
Or get up and dance
Time keeps talking
She says, "Do what you like"
But what you do with your day
Is what you do with your life
[Chorus]
Choices and chains
Choices and chains
When you're free to make choices
You're bound to make chains
[Bridge]
It's the payoff with a pitfall
It's the shirt with a stain
It's the strings on the puppet
It's a beer at Elaine's
It's a seat in the theater
It's a role on the stage
It's a look in the mirror
It's the burden of shame
It's the Garden of Eden
It's the yin and the yang
It's the price of admission
[Chorus]
Choices and chains
Choices and chains
When you're free to make choices
You're bound to make chains
[Outro]
And we all wanna break 'em
But try as we may
There's just no escaping
The chains of choices
Choices and chains
