Lyrics
I know you?ll feel at home, I know you?ll fit right in and hey I know you?re capable.
There?s a hundred more like you outside but friend you?ve got something I like, take a minute to decide.
You?ll be an individual but the independent (up and coming) don?t sit still.
Hey man what happened to you, you used to be a guy I knew, you used to be original (invincible, unstoppable). I guess you traded it for this, corner office, partial view (carbon copy point of view).
Upward mobility requires ruthless facility, I hope you don?t like being free.
The eensy weensy spider climbs up the water spout.
I KNOW you feel alone, I know you don?t fit in. I know you?re not convinced.
