Lyrics © Keith Pickering
Hi
I’m a guy who occupies
A little tri inside a pyramid
I’ve
been getting hassled by the guy
In the triangle right above mine
If I
Ever get out of this place
I know just what I’m gonna do
I’m
Going where the money is
Going into the Pyramid Business
The chips will fall just where they fall
They’ve got no wherewithal (none at all)
The time to act was all along
Now everything is gone
Opportunity cost
All ’cause you’re not the boss of me now
Whoop-de-freakin’-doo
Here we are in the land of the free
Where a company
Can be whatever its little heart desires
I
Really like to play the game
As long as I am winning
Let’s
Be honest, this whole thing is rigged
But only when I’m losing
I’ve
Been around to see the worst
Of pain to be inflicted
But I’ve
Just been sitting taking notes
At this point, I’m addicted
Climbed all the ladders, then said, "What the hell,
Let’s climb the chutes as well"
I made my bed, then it got in my head
It wasn’t big enough
Better scale it up
Opportunity cost
All ’cause you’re not the boss of me now
Whoop-de-freakin’-doo
Here we are in the land of the free
Where a company
Gets to be whatever its little heart desires
You want somethin’ done right,
You ought to do it yourself
Hire a whole bunch of people all by yourself
Take a bit from their pocket all by yourself
It’s a whole lotta work, there ain’t no pocket-pickin’ machine
If you know what I mean...
(Guitar solo)
Opportunity cost
All ’cause you’re not the boss of me now
Whoop-de-freakin’-doo
Here we are in the land of the free
Where a company
Gets to be a predator species
Opportunity cost
All ’cause you’re not the boss of me now
Well, zippity-fuckin’-doo-dah, hey
My oh my, what a home for the brave
We’re free to misbehave
