lyrics

RULE OF THUMB
Another day another dollar-minded thrift
We count the hours stuck in this establishment
It's when I stop to think about I'm feeling rotten
It just sucks to be me
My arteries all feel corroded, he fails to notice
That I can hardly breathe

The bossman says the work is not enough
We are a commodity to him
If we don't know all the words we'll make it up
We follow the melody my friend

Today's the day we try to make the pieces fit
Put on a face a pretend that I give a shit
It's when I stop to think about I'm pins and needles
This feeling won't relent
My arteries all feel corroded, he fails to notice
He's breathing down my neck

[chorus]

And now ladies and gentlement
Our feature presentation
Another look at the art of how reason and rhyme
Make space and time feel
All too familiar
We're going to make the best of this struggle
If you can't get enough of this,
Hold all applause for the end
