Exit Strategy (And a Slushie)

[Intro]
[Verse]
Stale air and gray walls
The regional manager calls
Warm beer in a plastic cup
Yeah I’ve had enough
Clocking out early today
I’m making my getaway
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that trombone blast
Moving way too fast
Leaving the spreadsheets behind
I’ve got a different mind
[Chorus]
Skanking on the sidewalk
Forget the office talk
Rainbow slushie in my hand
Best day in the land
Grinning at a total stranger
Safe from the cubicle danger
[Post-Chorus]
(Pick it up! Pick it up!)
Yeah we’re moving
(Pick it up! Pick it up!)
Keep on grooving
[Verse]
Kevin’s talking ’bout metrics
With a face like a stone
Janet’s checking the ethics
But she’s all alone
I’m chasing the upstroke beat
Down on 42nd street
[Pre-Chorus]
Farfisa starts to hum
Beating like a drum
Yellow sunlight on the brick
This is the magic trick
[Chorus]
Skanking on the sidewalk
Forget the office talk
Rainbow slushie in my hand
Best day in the land
Grinning at a total stranger
Safe from the cubicle danger
[Breakdown]
Check the rhythm
Give it to ‘em
One time for the bass
Two times for this place
No more suits
Just the roots
[Bridge]
The sun hits the brass
Forget the upper class
Just a circle of boots
Back to the island roots
Heartbeat skipping a gear
Glad that I am here
[Verse]
Tie hanging from a tree
Finally feeling free
Your suit was way too tight
I’m dancing through the light
Sticky sugar on my face
Winning the human race
[Chorus]
Skanking on the sidewalk
Forget the office talk
Rainbow slushie in my hand
Best day in the land
Grinning at a total stranger
Safe from the cubicle danger
[Post-Chorus]
(Pick it up! Pick it up!)
Yeah we’re moving
(Pick it up! Pick it up!)
Keep on grooving
[Outro]
