Overtime

I will disappoint you inevitably, stay where you are
Never trust no one who needs me to make them bigger than they are
No trust from me, not after those four years

No one really means well, no one really means it
Unless it means their benefit, or do they call it profit?
Now that's the one they told me of, but I didn't listen then
I was looking hard for something to sink my teeth in
I missed the signs of exploitation

I work a lot of overtime, walk home to my empty flat
The lights of Salford Quays quietly die down
Another night of dying young
I scroll my silly little phone
I don't want to see it, I'm wasting my time

I will disappoint you inevitably, stay where you are
Never trust no one who needs me to make them bigger than they are

I don't trust you, I don't trust you
I was told to be polite to the ones who are above me
But what if they're phony?
I can't lie I can't twist
I can't kiss their ass like you

Now that's the one I will avoid
I won't ever fall for it again
Now you're counting stacks
And you throw a party for friends
I'm still surprised how badly I read you
Surprise surprise surprise surprise!

I'll go out tonight
I'll buy a new attire
I'll go on a spree, coins and coins and sterling sings
I don't know about you but I'm free
I'm finally finally finally free

I will disappoint you inevitably, stay where you are
Never trust no one who needs me to make them bigger than they are

Overtime, no overtime
Overtime, do the overtime, overtime, overtime

No one really means well, no one really means it
Unless it means their benefit, or do they call it profit?
