5 Years |
So they say there’s a better way to make it |
A 9 to 5 is the only way you’ll make it |
But I don’t know if I can take another day of this |
Working overtime to save up for tomorrow |
While all their promises keep ringing out so hollow |
Now they’re taking all the bonuses away from me |
I’ve spent a fucking lifetime picking up the pieces |
I never even wanted this at all anyway |
Cuz it’s been 5 years of medications |
5 years of accusations |
5 years enslaved in misery |
5 years of dedication |
5 years of aggravation |
5 years enslaved in misery |
It’s all the same as we get a little older |
Nowhere to go and too late to start all over |
You’re just a number when you’re working for the company |
So play along while they rave about the stock price |
And pretty soon you’ll be buying into their lies |
Conformity is now rewarded with the guarantee |
That I’ll spend a fucking lifetime picking up the pieces |
I never even wanted this at all anyway |
Nowhere to run to and now there’s nothing |
That will make everything be alright |
Once you know that you’re never as important as the bottom line |
