Chlorophyll Cubicles

[Intro]
[Verse]
Badge clicks at the side door
Quiet on the tenth floor
Fluorescents start to hum
My fingers feel so numb
Carrying a cardboard tray
Hidden from the light of day
[Chorus]
Succulents in coffee mugs
Giving all the desks some hugs
Little bits of rebel green
In a world that's too clean
Sneaking in a little life
Cutting through the office strife
[Verse]
Mr. Henderson’s name tag
Faded like a lonely flag
Sticky notes with jokes inside
Where the tired spirits hide
I leave a jade plant on the rim
Something small to welcome him
[Pre-Chorus]
Water drips on carpet tile
Makes me want to stay a while
Fuzzy bass is in my head
Better than a lonely bed
[Chorus]
Succulents in coffee mugs
Giving all the desks some hugs
Little bits of rebel green
In a world that's too clean
Sneaking in a little life
Cutting through the office strife
[Bridge]
Xylophone rings out like rain
Softening the corporate pain
Pastel synths begin to glow
Watching all the seedlings grow
They don't know it's me
Setting nature free
[Hook]
Quiet green, quiet green
Living in the in-between
Quiet green, quiet green
Something that is never seen
[Verse]
Overwatered spines of gold
Stories that were never told
Crumpled notes of inside jokes
From the spreadsheet-weary folks
I’m the ghost of botany
In this gray economy
[Chorus]
Succulents in coffee mugs
Giving all the desks some hugs
Little bits of rebel green
In a world that's too clean
Sneaking in a little life
Cutting through the office strife
[Outro]
