about

A song about knowing your workplace is toxic, not always ethical and no longer appreciates what you attempt to contribute.

lyrics

Here we are, in a little room.
You brought me here to interrogate me.
And I’m not convinced, you really know
Really know what’s best for me

And I know, and you know,
and they know, that we know
It’s not right, not right, not right or good.
But we keep going ‘cause we think we should.

So here we are, in the room again.
Got a pile of papers and they’re full of lies.
And I’m not convinced, you believe in me.
I can see it in your eyes.

And I know, and you know,
and they know, that we know.
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, ah-ah-ah!
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, ah-ah-ah!

So here we are, in the room again.
Given me my grade and I’m not impressed.
And I’m not convinced, you know what I’m worth.
And I’m increasingly depressed.

And I’m sad and I’m tired.
My time here has long expired.
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, ah-ah-ah!
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, ah-ah-ah!
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, ah-ah-ah!
