The Grind from Wilrock by Paul Wilcock

Every day is the same
Mundane
Mundane

Suit and tie
Corporate lies
Another contract signed

Keep your desk tidy
Organised
Youve got to earn that promotion
Head down keep in line

The daily grind
Of the 9 to 5
Sucks all the joy
From my life
But it doesn't end when you walk out the door
The boss isnt happy unless you can do more
Work on the train work late again
Laptop in bed marriage down the drain

Sleepwalking through the day
Drinking more and more to numb the pain
It doesnt numb the pain

You need to get paid
So you do what they say
Slave
Slave

It soon comes around again
Monday
Monday

Desk tidy and neat
spreadsheets complete
Now can i sleep

Meetings overrun
Buy coffee for everyone
The managers smile
Makes it all worthwhile right?

The daily grind
Of the 9 to 5
Sucks all the joy
From my life

Business woman in a business dress
Taking the meeting shes taking my breath
Highlight of the week
We schedule another meet
With the pretty secretary
She never smiles at me
But i can make her make me coffee
Make me coffee
