Anthem of Success

The sun arrives begins the script
Past childhood dreams and into this
The clock it sings a routine chime
The people march in perfect time

The busyness soon starts to fade
And so begins the masquerade
The chairs turn round and round and round
The tapping keys, the clicks, the sounds

Plant your feet, grab a seat
Your bank account is incomplete
Pay the rent, Buy the boat
Family vacation, take the loan
Dress to impress, now get the raise
It’s what you want so run the maze
The mundane builds intensity
The water cooler symphony

Dress for success, dress to impress
Remember the customer is #1
Keep those Cubicles clean, be part of our team
--This-is- how good businesses are run
Set your standards high, and let the money fly
Your Hard work and profit are inseparable
Simply working 9-5, see all those dreams come alive
It’s your world, now take control

Reasoning begins to die
The humdrum sound is amplified
Your debt it builds with every check
A colored-collar around your neck
You post it up, you white it out
This church of work: become devout
Four tiny walls and one big room
Your lives are now one collective tomb

Dress for success, dress to impress
The customers is #1
Cubicles clean, part of the team
This-is- how good businesses are run
Set your standards high, let the money fly
Hard work and cash inseparable
Serve 9-5, you feel alive
It’s your world, now take control
