Can't stand the praise you sing
The foolish hope it brings
From empty promising
Don't follow through your swing
I stole some time to think
While waiting in these wings
How the carrot's on a string
But it's the stick that leaves the sting
Existing isn't free
And nothing's getting cheap
Except your pleasantries
But pizza won't appease
You complicate my means
With your ego above my needs
Subsistence isn't guaranteed
Pinched pennies make me bleed
You crow of charity
But can't conceal crow's feet
Your face too cracked and creased to see
You don't f*cking know me
Your skeleton's disease
Was born in corporate greed
The structure's swiss and squeezed
From leaning on the team
We asked for decency
You've turned down all our pleas
Well, someone's gotta scream
You hold the shares, now share the load
Or drown in grenadine
