Ten Percent to the Ten Percent |
| You seemed like such a smart young man |
| And your Father’s got a lot of friends |
| We didn’t bother to check your references |
| We’re a successful company |
| With endless opportunity |
| So why must you shit where you eat? |
| It all started out in the warehouse |
| Watching the stock, watching the clock |
| Taking shots from a flask of scotch |
| My first evaluation came |
| Remarkably they sang my praise |
| «Keep up the pace. |
| You could see a raise in pay.» |
| This seemed like a good challenge to me |
| So I started a game of craps in the back alley |
| What better way to supplement minimum wage |
| Despite these bits of debauchery |
| The managers failed to notice me |
| So what the fuck? |
| I started stealing things |
| Once inventory rolled around |
| A few sku items could not be found |
| Some DVD’s and a wide screen TV |
| «We'll dock these items from your pay |
| We expect you to finish out the day |
| Your father must be so ashamed.» |
| Fuck you and your job |
| And I’ll shit where I want |
| This country is gonna go out with a bang |
| This country is headed for Dependence Day |
| So lay out your blankets and wait for the fireworks display |
| You’re restless, devoid, and your job keeps you broke |
| Big Business booms and makes sure that we don’t |
| So get in the ring, you just ran out of rope |
| I’ll give ten percent to the ten percent |
| Now hand me those classifieds |
