about

Track 7 from Manzo's debut album 'Ultramarine'.

lyrics

The weekend’s gone and it’s been like heaven. It’s freezing outside and it’s ten to seven
I had better head off to work with all the other drones. just like everyone else, dressed in black from head to toe
Rednecks in pickups and suits in BMW’s, I don’t know whose worse. All hell bent, to get there first

Roadworks now and it’s ever so slow. Just indicate mate and I will let you go
My desk has gone, where did it go, No one will look at me, their heads held low
Guards circle around me, todays not going well. Down the stairs to a room below — Oh hell
She isn’t like the others, she thinks, she appears restless and impatient, bordering on
belligerent
It has been noted by management
I have a brain, I have my own thoughts. They are mine and mine alone
If you stand out from the crowd your career will suffer
Screw you
The day is done, and I make my way home. Being under the spotlight makes me feel so alone
Yet there’s others like me I can see it in their eyes. One day we will unite and together we will rise
