Brothers I am calling from the breakroom of the kings With nothing left to toast A dark shift lies ahead Together we will cope Like we lost our only hope May your coffee stay hot Like a fresh pot in its prime Hold your plastic mugs high We are way behind We are living on the edge of time We must get rich But checking emails is a crime Many promises were made But in the end The first to sigh has always been the working man You're the keeper of the office keys That lock up the pantry cheese And the HR manager said before he went blind Hide them from interns and rescue mankind Or the coffee we are drinking will soon be cold Paid with the last of our budget gold You can feel cold sweat running down your neck When the Wi-Fi drops and the server starts to wreck Guided by prompts of the old IT guy You're suffering errors only rebooting can defy Stay well on your way and submit the ticket online Fulfill your daily quota and do as divined Throw the first key into the cup of tea Throw the second key into the recycling bin Throw the third key into the scanner bed And make the coworkers hold each other's hands The fourth key belongs in the desk drawer And the fifth... wait Where did I put the fifth? Find the key or we all might cry You're the keeper of the office keys That lock up the pantry cheese And the HR manager said before he went blind Hide them from interns and rescue mankind Or the coffee we are drinking will soon be cold Paid with the last of our budget gold Now power and vacation Are taken by the will By corporate right Hail and chill Bake and grill Hail Hail Hail and chill Bake and grill An earthquake of paperwork Printing fire Bursting staplers The boss is screaming And the shredder is swallowing it away The tyrant is gone... he went home at five We have given our souls back to the evening light Yeah... we are free again
