Testo Shuffling Paper Ryan Montbleau
Slippers in the same place, cold tiles staring.
Water hits the face and I can see now.
Grey coat, blue tie,
Staring at the back of a van.
Same road, same ride,
With the traffic backed up again.
Ainât no site of the sunshine yet,
Only looking forward to later.
Maybe I can dream in the afternoon,
But as for right now itâs time
For shuffling paper.
Paper-clip yuk-yuk, cheap conversation.
None of these people I wouldnât call my peers.
Staring at the coffee pot
Staring at the digital clock,
Seven more hours of this.
Cubicle next to me says âHi,â
Every now and again.
Canât think of nothing more exciting than a closet full of pencils and pens
Canât think of nothing more stimulating than a neon light and a stapler
I swear if I didnât have to pay my bills,
I wouldnât have to be here
Cold shuffling paper.
Shuffling paper.
You can kiss my assets goodbye.
Youâre a liability to my way of life.
Iâm insured but I have no assurance
That what I do here makes any bit of differenceâ¦.
Besides shuffling paper.
Shuffling paper.
