Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
You're a well-paid scientist, you only talk in facts You know you're always right 'Cause you know how to prove it, step-by-step PhD to show you're smart with textbook formulas But you're used up, just like a factory hand Something is wrong here You won't find in on a shelf You're well-paid, you're well-trained, you're tied to a rack Company cocktails, gotta go Say the right thing don't fidget, jockey for position Be polite in the pyramid you hate Sip that scotch, get that raise, this ain't no party at all Something is wrong here You won't find in on a shelf You're well-paid, you're well-trained, you're tied to a rack Cringe and tense up, grind your teeth And wipe your sweaty palms Close your windows driving past the lowlife company bar They're making fun of you Ha! Ah, even you You've gotta punch the clock, why don't you punch your boss? Ah, even you You just punch the clock, too scared to punch your boss When will you crack? When will you crack? When will you Open your eyes, open your eyes, open your eyes? Pull up to your sterile home, you're drained Bite the heads off of your kids Chew them well, they taste like you, just slam the door Assigned here 'cause your company owns the land All your colleagues live here too Private guards in golf carts keep you safe at home? Something is wrong here You won't find in on a shelf You're well-paid, you're well-trained, you're tied to a rack When will you crack? When will you crack? When will you crack? When will you crack? The dark shattered underbelly of the American dream Avoid it like the plague It stares you from your bathroom mirror Drown!
