Lyrics
[Intro] [Hook] I'm done with the cubicle life Cutting the cord with a knife Driving till the sun comes up Emptying my coffee cup [Verse] Two a.m. in the neon glow Ready for the midnight show Staring at the spreadsheet screen Feeling like a ghost machine Grabbed my keys and hit the door I don't work here anymore Tossed the badge in the trash Making a desperate dash [Pre-Chorus] The resignation's a paper ball Bouncing off the lobby wall Out the window, let it fly Kiss the office park goodbye [Chorus] Singing loud to a demo tape Planning out the great escape D major on a Telecaster Driving fast, then driving faster Back to the basement where we started For the loud and the brokenhearted Middle finger to the nine-to-five Finally feeling like I'm alive [Verse] Palm-muted riffs on the highway line Everything is gonna be fine Fretless bass in the trunk Listening to high school punk Passed the exit for the city No more looking back, what a pity Tie is loose and the windows down Heading for a small-town sound [Pre-Chorus] The resignation's a paper ball Bouncing off the lobby wall Out the window, let it fly Kiss the office park goodbye [Chorus] Singing loud to a demo tape Planning out the great escape D major on a Telecaster Driving fast, then driving faster Back to the basement where we started For the loud and the brokenhearted Middle finger to the nine-to-five Finally feeling like I'm alive [Bridge] Three states down, two to go Catching the rhythm of the flow No more meetings, no more calls Just the sweat on basement walls Staccato leads and a heavy beat Tearing up the asphalt street I’m not a cog, I’m not a slave Digging out of a shallow grave [Breakdown] One, two, three, four! I’m out the door! I’m wanting more! Yeah! [Chorus] Singing loud to a demo tape Planning out the great escape D major on a Telecaster Driving fast, then driving faster Back to the basement where we started For the loud and the brokenhearted Middle finger to the nine-to-five Finally feeling like I'm alive [Post-Chorus] Yeah, I'm alive Forget the five I'm gonna thrive In the basement dive Yeah, we're alive! [Outro]
