CAPTAIN HOOK
Askin' yourself, "Can you get out?"
Standard nine to five, you have the weekend but you got nothin' else
Boss is a bitch, that got you doin' the shit
You didn't build your dream so now he got you working building for him
I can't stand society
That just won't let me be me
Fuck the corporations,
I'd rather die than fit in
Dig a hole six feet deep
And bury me under that
If I can't have
Any life that doesn't involve makin' me a rat
In the rat trap
'Cause I once heard somebody say
That the biggest lie you'll hear today
Is that you can't win the rat race
"Even if you win you'll always be a rat
Stuck up in a cage, for another day"
News rooms will try to tell you somethin' different
But that's just because they never had the balls to actually do it
To stand up, say "Fuck this shit, I'm done with it,
I resign, I'm done, fuck the world and now I quit"
'Cause the fake news is comin' from the same rooms,
Same young anchors gettin' fucked by the boss dudes
For a promotion that'll make them rich
But sellin' yourself won't take away the fact the system has a bigger dick
Dig a hole six feet deep
And bury me under that
If I can't have
Any life that doesn't involve makin' me a rat
In the rat trap
'Cause I once heard somebody say
That the biggest lie you'll hear today
Is that you can't win the rat race
"Even if you win you'll always be a rat
Stuck up in a cage, for another day"
Standard nine to five, you have the weekend but you got nothin' else
Boss is a bitch, that got you doin' the shit
You didn't build your dream so now he got you working building for him
