Lyrics
Corporate #1
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Coaching on the job, cherry on the cake
Spare me the TED talk, you horn rimmed fool
Did they teach you this crap at school?
Coaching on the job, cherry on the cake
A quick win is all it takes
I bet you had some boyhood issues
I guess your Daddy was an alcoholic
That's why you morphed from underachiever
Into a full blown workaholic
Oh, that's what you'd like to believe, hahahaha
You let others do the dirty work
While you sit behind your desk
With medals pinned to your chest
Which you hardly deserve, you jerk
Coaching on the job, cherry on the cake
You receive the men from the premier league
With your mouth and ass white open
You'd sell your mother to be one of them
A decision maker with a perma grin
And all the while, all the while
We despise you for who you are
While you count your millions
While you think that you're a star
You think that you have made it
As a corporate number
But when I look into your eyes
I know you'll never get too far
You love it when they kiss your ass
It makes you feel like a success
Coaching on the job, cherry on the cake
Comfort zone, motivational speech
Nonsense talk, opportunities
Sales potential, industry fitness
Return on investment, the Forbes richlist
Comfort zone, motivational speech
Nonsense talk, opportunities
Sales potential, industry fitness
Return on investment, you're on my shitlist
