lyrics

Common Stock

A message on a voicemail
told me of my fate
and last day with the company
that I suddenly hate.
Not much was said
but I understood the
feelings on their end,
as they towed the party line
of their corporatist heads:

“You’ve been downsized,
thanks for your time,
but now it’s time to leave.
It’s the economy you see
there’s just no place to be.
Your loyalty will be repaid
by sending your job overseas,
better to compete
without much lament,
perhaps we’ll have you back
as a consultant or a temp.”

Swallowing pride,
turning away
from the luxury of minimum wage.
Repulsed by shame
of every meager offering
they made,
it amounts to slavery
all for the bottom line,
as the idiot is promoted,
the hard-working are depleted
in the name of profit
that’s just gambled in the markets.
