Human Capital Lyrics

Despised are minds that sweat their debt
Spill their guts with bitter breath
Buck against the work harness
By the bottom line

Stow your tired sorrow; everyone's depressed
And no investor favors assets in distress
You'll get froze out if your drive is in doubt
So stand up straight, clean up your mess

It's time to recoup what you owe
It's time to make some margins grow
You joined the portfolio at the moment of birth
Time to cover your cost, time to yield your worth

Become your best self
Persist to produce, deny yourself rest
Maintain, by false health be blessed
For every pain repressed, a palliative caress
Keeps you by wealth possessed
Laboring for change, straining to impress

The market is cornered
The future is clear
You'll serve with a smile
Or die of despair
