The Saboteur's Blues

[Verse 1] Coffee spilled on paperwork Sand in the gears tonight Moving slow, letting go Making trouble look alright Just a wrench in the machine Just a grain of sand Making chaos quietly With a steady hand [Chorus] I'm the ghost in your machine The rust in your gears The lost file in between The sugar in your tank, my dear Just doing my job wrong Taking twice as long That's the Saboteur's Blues And this is my song [Verse 2] Meetings run too long today Forms filled out all wrong Every memo lost its way Everything takes too long I'm the king of small mistakes Master of the fade Every little error makes Your perfect plans decay [Bridge] You'll never catch me 'Cause I look just like you Working diligently At everything I do But oh so carefully Making things go wrong Professionally Taking twice as long [Final Chorus] I'm the ghost in your machine The rust in your gears The lost file in between The sugar in your tank, my dear Just doing my job wrong Taking twice as long That's the Saboteur's Blues And now you know my song [Outro] (Whispered) Just a grain of sand Just a steady hand Just a tiny push And watch it all... crash... down...
