Speed Up the Process

The sound of your colleague's sigh of grief, it's more common than you think
When they say they're just living the dream, their insides are truly as dead as winter's leaves
8 hours of sitting down, no daydreaming, talking, or looking around
Plug yourself into the machine who owns you, eyes fried, brain frozen, your fun spark you absently withdrew

Speed up the process
Your performance is poor
We have money to make
So rack up your score
Speed up the process
This can't take all day
Hurry up and hustle
Or you won't get your pay

Traffic loaded on the interstate. Everyone's in a rush to a place they hate
Bumper to bumper is the way it goes. Fuming anger unleashed by self-entitled egos
Meetings repeat what's already known. Your fake smile you wish to disown
The noise and clatter from upper management, which all you want to do is dethrone

Speed up the process
Your performance is poor
We have money to make
So rack up your score
So speed up the process
This can't take all day
Hurry up and hustle
Or you won't get your pay

Work hard, not smart, what's the difference anyway, you're still working hard until the day you pension away
Time is money, can't afford to lose pennies, I want this done now, you're not going anywhere
Due dates, can't wait, don't be late, cost your fate, as your mental state slowly deteriorates
You wonder if it's worth it, eyes wide, focused attention on your boss who clearly uses you, but make him fear losing you

Speed up the process
Your performance is poor
We have money to make
So rack up your score
So speed up the process
This can't take all day
Hurry up and hustle
Or you won't get your pay
So speed up the process
Your performance is poor
We have money to make
So rack up your score
So speed up the process
This can't take all day
Hurry up and hustle
Or you won't get your pay
