Corporate America |
| I grew up in a middle-class household |
| Every morning mom and dad would go to work |
| And I never had a second thought about it |
| 'Cause that’s just the way things were |
| Got a little older and got married |
| Now my wife and I are doing what they did |
| But these sixty-hour weeks have got me wondering |
| What if Big Brother did not exist |
| What if no one could buy me |
| I’d be so high, I’m flying |
| I know I’ll get there one day |
| I hope that I get there one day |
| 'Cause all I want is a little bit of freedom |
| Got big dreams and I wanna keep dreaming |
| So corporate America, please, spare me |
| Please, spare me, no, please, spare me |
| I don’t wanna see my life take shape yet |
| Not ready to decide my fate yet |
| Right now, it’s going to college and working till five |
| Hundreds of meetings and corporate life |
| Get a house and two kids then I’ll turn sixty-five |
| And retire and then spend the rest of my time |
| Doing the same old shit, yeah |
| Doing the same old shit |
| And when I die, that’s all I did |
| No, that won’t be the way I live |
| So I’m living in the moment |
| Struggling to keep focus |
| I’m keeping the doors wide open |
| Tryna stay up, keep floating |
| 'Cause all I want is a little bit of freedom |
| Got big dreams and I wanna keep dreaming |
| So corporate America, please, spare me |
| Please, spare me, no, please, spare me |
| «You've gotta make the money |
| You’ve gotta make it faster |
| Don’t do what you love for a living |
| If it don’t make you no cash», un- |
| Fortunately that’s logical |
| Guess I can’t argue with that |
| But I just don’t wanna give up |
| Half of my life at it |
| No, don’t need to be whipping a foreign |
| Don’t need no ice on my neck, yeah |
| And I’m still working for corporate |
| But I still can’t get ahead, I |
| Wish I could take a break from |
| Tryna get all of this bread |
| all in debt |
| Yeah… |
| Don’t need to be whipping a foreign |
| But I’m still working for corporate |
| But I know I gotta do it |
| Oh, I know I gotta do it |
| (Oh, no, no, no) |
