Goalposts

I've worked hard all my life
Got this far by never giving up
I can see the finish line
But you keep moving the goalposts from where it was
Everybody
Ululating
My scream is a war cry

I read the Policies and Procedures inside out
I risk assess everyday
I work hard everyday
What I do will never be right in their set ways
Maybe I shouldn't be here
Why I'm I here?

When things go badly wrong you move the goalposts
Blame everyone but yourself
Wash your hands clean
I wear my work face proudly like warpaint
Let's set sail
Find our way
Navigate through corporate kingdom

Uniformed copy of how one should look like
Just to fit right in
Another over time to bow all day

I've worked hard all my life
Got this far by never giving up
I can see the finish line

I've worked hard all my life
Got this far by never giving up
I can see the finish line
But you keep moving the goalposts from where it was
Everybody
Ululating
My scream is a war cry

When things go badly wrong you move the goalposts
Blame everyone but yourself
Wash your hands clean
I wear my work face proudly like warpaint
Let's set sail
Find our way
Navigate through corporate kingdom
