Corporate lackey in company vehicle
Above yourself
You know all their rules, recite all their jargon
(But is that enough to take you up?)
A regulation for all situations –
‘The company way’
All bluff and such bullshit – you never did get it!
Who cares? (Not you!) When all you need to say is –

YES! That’s the holy word to please them, oh
YES! Tell them all the lies they want, it’s
YES! That will make them think you’re worth it
So when they’re here you’ll say anything – say –
YES! Give them ‘real’ job satisfaction, oh
YES! Earn your wages of deceit/bonus of conceit
Who needs self respect when faced with such prospects?!

Morals from heaven, holidays in Devon
With the wife and kids
A weekend of ‘tiffin’ – though what you’re really missing
Is the chance to make some serious cash!
Nations starving, and nations warring –
Dude, nice new wheels!!
For we always knew you had that Thatcherite view –

Quote – ‘Who needs the bus? Don’t we all, like, drive cars?!’ When -

YES! That’s the holy word to please them, oh
YES! Tell them all the lies they want, it’s
YES! That will make them think you’re worth it
So when they’re here you’ll say anything – say –
YES! Give them ‘real’ job satisfaction, oh
YES! Earn your wages of deceit/bonus of conceit
Who needs self respect when faced with such prospects?!

'Rap':

The sound of this generation isn’t guitars thrashing
It’s all drowned out by the economy crashing
Corporate greed - the modern creed
It all ends with a society of need
A spineless Chancellor gives too many chances
To degenerate bosses when revenge is the answer
Make the banks pay – brimstone and fire
Ban big bonuses – and terminate the liars
Too much focus on profit margins
The whole country suffers at the rates you’re charging?!
Unapologetic, arrogant, avaricious
Witness the face of modern big business
So here’s our message for the shameless directors
We wish you on a date with Hannibal Lecter!
Bankrupt bankers and bring back nurses
Rid this land of the scourge of such curses!

You said ‘More effort’ I said ‘Less is the new more!’
(It was just a joke!)
Yes, your sense of humour was only a rumour!
And now here’s what we think of you –
You merchant banker in a job so thankless
Though all you care
Is that the tills are alive with the sound of your bonus!
If you only knew how it feels to feel!!

YES! That’s the holy word to please them, oh
YES! Tell them all the lies they want, it’s
YES! That will make them think you’re worth it
So when they’re here you’ll say anything – say –
YES! Give them ‘real’ job satisfaction, oh
YES! Earn your wages of deceit/bonus of conceit
Who needs self respect when faced with such prospects?!
