Nolan Lentz - Corporate Lullaby Lyrics

[Intro]
Rainbow logos and empty words
While my father's walking out those doors
Another round of corporate lies
They're painting gold on their disguise

[Verse 1]
Diversity statements printed clean
While the factory floor turns to a machine
Dad's thirty years, what did they mean?
When algorithms run the scene
They tweet about equity all day
While coding ways to take our pay
UPM shut down another line
But hey, their Pride post looks so fine
F*ck your performative display
Trading lives for market gains
Helsinki suits behind closed doors
Planning layoffs between their tours

[Chorus]
Rainbow washing all their sins
Corporate activism for the win
Empty promises, that's the game
Different logo, same old shame
They're selling hope but dealing pain
Progress is their cocaine

[Verse 2]
OpenAI's leadership dance
Preaching ethics at first glance
But underneath the PR show
It's still about the money flow
From Jakobstad to Silicon Valley
Same shit different alley
They automate our jobs away
Then post about a better day
LinkedIn warriors typing fast
About inclusion that won't last
Meetings about diversity
While coding new austerity
My father's hands built this town
Now algorithms shut it down
But hey, they changed their avatar
To show how progressive they are

[Bridge]
Remember when they said we matter?
Before the pink slips started scatter
AI ethics on their minds
While working class gets left behind
Virtanen knows, he sees it clear
The sound of progress brings us fear

[Verse 3]
Bilingual bullshit on display
"Työpaikka gone" but that's okay
'Cause look how inclusive they became
While playing their efficiency game
F*ck your hackathon for change
When real lives get rearranged
Your DEI consultant's fee
Could've saved a family

[Outro]
So keep your statements, keep your posts
While working class becomes your ghost
Your activism's just a shield
For profits that you'll never yield
Rainbow logos, empty words
While my father's walking out those doors
