about

Remember "Almost Live!"? They had a sketch called 'ineffectual middle management suck-ups.' You know these types well. Hell, you might even be one of them.

Ever want to smash a piece of equipment at work because of years of repressed anger caused by these types and their inbred, nepotistic bullshit? Well, some of us have. It'll cost you, but it sure is worth it.

This was the first song on the album to be written, by the by.

lyrics

Your open-door policies were always
Kind of a farce
Lifted up on wings of broken dreams and hearts
You're destined to crash and burn

I know you think you're quite high above me
But all in all you're just as expendable
So replaceable
Replaceable

Change the rules so they can suit your mood swings
It's good to be in power
It gets you high, it takes you down
Your former friends are after you

I know you think you're quite high above me
But all in all you're just as expendable
So replaceable
Replaceable

I worded my resignation the way you deserved to hear it
When I put my fist through that glass pane
The payback for years of lies and sinful manipulation
I broke your cheap toy, I made you hurt
I've moved on to greener pastures and you still smell like a fry vat
When you come home to count your losses
And maybe someday you'll learn that you're no different than anyone
That day is coming, your fate is sealed

As important as you think you are
In the end, you're still working a McJob
