On the Ladder

I'm a one-dimensional man
Stuck to an unintentional plan
I'm a travelling man in the practice of navigating my way on a vertical axis

On the ladder
You couldn't tell me apart
I wanted to earn some money but I didn't wanna think too hard

Keep climbing, keep climbing, keep climbing. The time won't wait around for you

And when I see you on the ladder
On a day we're barely getting through
Ask how you doing?
'Never better, how are you?'
And Work's shit as ever
But what can you do?

You can keep on climbing
Moving through the ranks
Proud to have employment
Reluctant to give thanks
Till this ladder that you're on becomes your field of expertise
And you can only hope that the next apple falls further from the tree

Keep climbing, keep climbing, keep climbing. The time won't wait around for you
