My Thousand Dreams

My Thousand Dreams

I’ve finally shunned the work
Done with the final poking jerk
Next time I’ll fly home at four
Take a couple breaks or more

Who needs this anguish anyway
Time to go fish and out to play
Might see a speedy demotion
But wouldn’t feel future commotion

Hmmm

Why stop there
Could sell my house and keep my hair
Work whenever and be a job bore
Better that than the downtrodden whore

Welcome back to what I see
Too much debt is the reality
Couldn’t live on primal means
I'd miss all my wonderful imaginings

Hmmm

Yessiree boss, no problem at all
Put my back against the wall
Seal my lowly clerical fate
Working on projects way too late

Being the best isn’t as simple as it seems
Stomaching this is worth my thousand dreams
