Well Paid Scientist Lyrics

You're a well paid scientist You only talk in facts You know you're always right 'Cause you know how to prove it Step by step A PhD to show you're smart With textbook formulas But you're used up Just like a factory hand (chorus) Something is wrong here You won't find it on a shelf You're well paid You're well trained You're tied to a rack Company cocktails - gotta go Say the right thing Don't fidget, jockey for position Be polite In the pyramid you hate Sip that scotch Get that raise This ain't no party at all (chorus) Cringe and tense up Grind your teeth And wipe your sweaty palms Close your windows driving past The low life company bar They're making fun of you Ahhh Even you You've gotta punch the clock Too scared to punch your boss When will you crack When will you crack When will you crack When will you open your eyes Pull up to your sterile home You're drained Bite the heads off of your kids Chew them well, they taste like you Just slam the door Assigned here cause your company owns the land All your colleagues live here too Private guards in golf carts Keep you safe at home? (chorus) When will you crack When will you crack When will you crack When will you crack The dark shattered underbelly Of the American dream Avoid it like the plague It stares you from the bathroom mirror Drown
