oh, you captain of industry - dan warren lyrics

[verse 1]
where did we go wrong?
all we wanted was to get along
all we wanted was to buy our little piece of happiness
some room up near the top
and if it doesn’t make you happy, you just don’t know where to shop

and i’m no fool
i’m just a normal man who needs an inground pool
and in exchange i’ve been a willing tool
but as a tool i probably shouldn’t be surprised
that the second they were done with me
i was simply set aside

[chorus]
but oh, you captain of industry
have you no sympathy?
have you no sense that this will surely be the end of me?
oh, no, don’t say no
oh please, i need this sh*tty job, don’t send me home

[verse 2]
feels like a scam
like i sold the better part of who i am
for some worthless bits of paper and a handshake from a man
who didn’t merit my respect
a slow erosion of the soul i was too busy to detect
but now that’s done
and i’m forced to live with who i have become
and the knowledge that i got here
with a thousand tiny compromises i made every day
not some single bad decision
where i p*ssed it all away

[chorus]
but oh, you captain of industry
none of this makes sense to me
how have i sold you half my life so inexpensively?
oh, no, don’t say no
please sir, i need this sh*tty job, don’t send me home
