Pay me by the hour, one task at a time
One raise comes by, two dreams up and die
I'm all up for favors if my spine can drag behind
Tell me again is this what success looks like
Now in the first wave
You feel the undertow
It's only natural to have a little drag and pull
Yeah you paint another smile on
And glide across the sales floor
You've got people you deal with, not people you care for
You've got folks you look through
Not people you get to know
Heed the call to hoist that bottom line
Just a little more
Now in the first wave
You felt it drag and pull
But this is something else
More like letting go
And if you start to feel
A little hint of remorse
Just remember that, this is just a dance
Call it the payroll
