Lyrics

Oh
What is this? I just can't believe
That I have walked into the belly of the beast
There's not a prayer or a cross on me
And yet
I'm dying on my knees
Another sales call right before I'm dismissed
Oh
I've become a slave to a corporate machine
Oh
I've become a slave to a corporate machine
When I was sixteen
I dreamed about things
Now I'm getting older and jaded
Not to be dramatic
But lately
I just need a cigarette
I just need a cigarette
Startin' to sound like my mom
Mm
Land of the free
Home of the brave
They like to say you'll die in debt and live for minimum wage
The CEO can sit on his stage
Cause it's his soul that I sold to be a worker at this age
He's just a fat cat greedier than a graverobber
Oh
Oh
I've become a slave to a corporate machine
Oh
I've become a slave to a corporate machine
When I was sixteen
I dreamed about things
Now I'm getting older and jaded
Not to be dramatic
But lately
I just need a cigarette
I just need a cigarette
Startin' to sound like my mom
Mm
Every day I'm parking the car at half-past eight
But you're always on the backshift
Which is great
I'm getting sixty quid an hour
But I'd throw it all away just to hold you
Baby
Sometimes a job ain't a job
If it's something you love to do
And now I've settled in for Summer
Picking up the moonshine for you
We used to kick around the abandoned building sites
Dropped Philly Blunts and got drug driving fines
Now I wear a suit and tie
And God sent me back in time
And now that job don't feel like a job
Now I got something to do
And I'll be your walking gypsy king of fertilizer
As long as I got you
I've become a slave to a corporate machine
Since you started serving on queen
I'm about to get the big promotion
And now I got my missus this summer off 'cause I've got troops on the moon
I'll be your king of fertilizer
I'll be your king of fertilizer
And I'll be your walking gypsy king of the fertilizer
As long as I got you
And I've become a slave to a corporate machine
Since you started serving on queen
I'm about to get the big promotion
And now I got my missus 'cause I've got troops on the moon
I'll be your king of fertilizer (And now that job don't feel like a job
I'll be your king of fertilizer (Now I got something to do
And I'll be your walking gypsy king of the fertilizer
As long as I got you
And I've become a slave to a corporate machine
Since you started serving on queen
I'm about to get the big promotion
And now I got my missus 'cause I've got troops on the moon
And now that job don't feel like a job
I'll be your king of fertilizer
