THE FURY
You wake to the day, its 5 in the morning.
Your hands reflect toil, and a life full of pain.
The night from before spread out in the kitchen.
The bottles of regret are to plain to see.
And for 25 years you worked, you labored.
25 years life at sea.
It took just one day, and it’s gone in the morning.
A life time of choices now shows on your face.
You wake to the day, well its 5 in the morning.
Your hands reflect toil, and a life full of pain.
The night from before spread out in the kitchen.
The bottles of regret are to plain to see.
Your head and hands are no longer needed.
The world has moved on, so here’s your last pay.
The years passed you by and you’re lost to progression.
You better get off and get out of the way.
Pre chorus
And if you don’t stop now, you ain’t gonna make it.
And if you don’t stop now, there be no today.
Better slow down and live for tomorrow,
says your new boss, who now stands half your age.
Chorus
And for 25 years you worked and you labored.
25 years life at sea.
It took just one day and it’s gone in the morning.
A life time of choices now shows on your face.
45 years old and your life it is over.
You want to stand up, work on just the same.
But now stands a man with no verve or existence.
They took all they could and a shell just remains.
A company man, well you gave em your all.
They made you feel proud; O you’re just a slave.
And now as you stand there with no life or a future,
A company man, they’ll write on your grave.
Pre chorus
Chorus
But it’s time to rise up and be accounted.
You better get up. It’s time to stand tall.
Pick yourself off the ground make everyone notice.
It’s time to get back, and say fuck em all!
New company man only knows how to downsize.
He will see increase with losing you all.
Profits and margins he’ll just hit that number.
So it’s time to hit back and make that landfall.
And for 25 years you worked and you labored.
25 years life at sea.
It took just one day and it’s gone in the morning.
A life time of choices now shows on your face.
