Cursive Lyrics

"Ten Percent To The Ten Percent" lyrics


ou seemed like such a smart young man.
Your father's got a lot of friends.
We didn't bother to check your references.
We're a successful company
with endless opportunity
So why must you shit where you eat?"

It all started out in the warehouse.
Watching the stock, watching the clock
Taking shots from a flask of scotch
My first evaluation came
Remarkably, they sang my praise:
"Keep up the pace, you could see a raise in pay."

This seemed like a good challenge to me
So I started a game of craps in the back alley
What better way to sublet minimum wage?
Despite these fits of debauchery,
the managers failed to notice me
So what the fuck?
I started stealing things

Once inventory rolled around,
a few SKU items could not be found.
Some DVD's and a widescreen TV.
"We'll dock these items from your pay
and we expect you to finish out the day
Your father must be so ashamed."

Fuck you and your job
And I'll shit I want
This country's gonna go out with a bang
This country's heading for Dependence Day
So lay out your blankets and wait for the fireworks display

You're restless, deported
Your job keeps you broke
So get in the ring
You just ran out of rope

I'll give ten percent
to the ten percent
