Executive - CICADA

He spoke up now for a little while

Couldn't let his life slip away

He spoke up now just for a little while

But couldn't find words to say

He spoke up now with an open file

To put his plan in place

He spoke up now and all the while

The color drained from his face

Too tired to sleep at night

Working the day

Can't find an appetite no time to play

He spoke up now threw his pencil down

Wiped a tear from his cheek

He spoke up now

All his colleagues frowned

He wasn't made for the working week

Too tired to sleep at night

Working the day

Can't find an appetite no time to play

He spoke up now

As the walls came in

And stared defeat in the eye

He spoke up now

With an evil grin

Bid his job goodbye

Too tired to sleep at night

Working the day

Can't find an appetite no time to play

He spoke up now

Too tired to sleep at night

Working the day

He spoke up now

Can't find the appetite no time to play

He spoke up now

As the walls came in

And stared defeat in the eye

He spoke up now

With an evil grin

Bid his job goodbye
