Career Lyrics - Singles - Crashdog

hey there missy what's that on your mind? 

i see you tossed out all your papers and gotten out of line 

you wanna throw your life away looking for a sign 

think of all you're risking just to have a spine 

(chorus) 

they talk, they talk, they talk, they talk 

they shove it in our ears 

they say you gotta feed your dreams 

to the jaded beast, career 

but when you're sitting at the helm 

of some misguided corperate plot 

you'll not know what victory is 

you'll know what it's not 

come here sonny we like to start 'em young 

you gotta rise above the rest, you must be number one 

i still remember the words my wise pappy said to me 

"i've no time for play, child, work's my destiny" 

wake up mom and dad, can't you understand? 

would you rather have your children under the command 

of some grinding oncler with another thneed 

or living unrespectably for what they believe? 

(chorus) 

now i believe in hard work, fingers to the bone 

but it's gotta be for more than just my greed alone 

or even worse than that, empowering some suit 

i'd like to see the love of money underneath my boot
