careerism - the michael character lyrics
maybe the only suitable path now
lays through the brambles of careerism
i could get that phd dissertation written within
five to seven years depending on how fully i commit to it
if i did another master’s in something like administration
i could be a high school vice princ*p*l
with a pay bump and the same vacation
or i could do the higher ed thing
or i could keep my current position
and try to supplement my pay
by working hard at being a musician
in point of fact, it’s quite easy to measure your life in a series of benchmarks
got the job and the house and the dog and the spouse and the brand new lease on car
maybe it’s a stupid life
i buy that
but it’d buy that
(person 1, spoken)
now, i just noted something here, shane’s playing with a glove
(person 2)
he’s been paying with a glove for a long time
(person 1)
has he?
(person 2)
yeah
(person 1)
have you ever played with a glove?
(person 2)
i play with a glove
(person 1)
‘kay
(person 2)
i*i* he* well, i play with a glove
(person 1)
okay
(person 2)
let’s just leave it at that and i don’t need to talk about my game
