High-Tech


Gonna build a website and I'll name it after me,
Throw away my dreams down to the bottom of the sea,
I use to be a real extreme,
A mean machine, I once was lean,
Guess I really let myself go.
I work in high-tech:
I manage,
Control damage,
But you wont see me,
I'm just another face in the crowd.

Thirty-something; got a child, a stack of bills, a pension plan,
Thirty-something years to go until I see a cent,
Before it's earned, the money spent,
Try as I might, can't supplement,
If the world is on my shoulders,
Naturally my back is bent.
I work in high-tech,
Don't need praises,
I need raises,
Trying to make ends meet,
I'm just another face in the crowd.
