Garrett Joseph's Ver Sacrum - Don't Tell Me How To Do My Job Lyrics

I know they are disappointed in the way I handle things
They're saying I steal time and act cowardly
Yet I go on through dollars and sales, through politics and tales
How much grief can I contain in just one life

Yet I go on through complaints and meetings, enduring speech and reprimand
Do they even know how much she demands

Yet I go on and try to remain calm
It presses, presses on my temple, the pain in right and wrong

Oh, God
Excuse me, Susan? Susan right? Yeah
Could you, uh
Shut up

Yet I go on, I must make ends meet
On the clock, a living's not for me
And those who control from their office hole

Yet I go on, though time is at a crawl
With voices telling me I'm wrong
Echoing her words and my pain

Yet I go on and on and on and on and on

Someone needs to know what I think

Endless noise and painful dread
All to sleep in an empty bed
Food is scarce and spirits dry
And no one out there tells me why

Break the desks and smash the halls
Tear the spirit of capital
My eyes are worn, the mind is lost
Don't tell me how to do my job

Think you know better than me
Try it then, take a seat
Don't tell me how to do my job
A single thought brings a halt

What would she think

Don't tell me how to do my job
