lyrics

I’m staring at the screen at the LinkedIn
Talking ‘bout the talent acquisition
One big superstition

Program specialists
Customer experience
They’re all wiser than their years
How could I ever be near to the top?
Well I guess I’m not

I see an orange arrow on a black shadow
So I click upon the devil’s smile
My time is up for now

They say they’re searching for
Someone to explore
How to turn the market into mint
They’re offering a six-month stint
To do the job
And they pay a lot

And I know that what I’m doing
Won’t be making money soon
But I just can’t face the music
When it’s this much out of tune
Am I wrong in assuming
That they’re not happy too?

A little light is blinking
Telling me I should be thinking
‘Bout the latest innovation
And not my next vacation

There’s a free webinar
Teaching me to be a star
But I’d rather grab my guitar
And sing myself this yarn
Doo dee dot
Well I just can’t stop

And I know that what I’m doing
Won’t be making money soon
But I just can’t face the music
When it’s this much out of tune
Am I wrong in assuming
That they’re not happy too?

Being used
Generating revenue
For like... some rich dude

I choose my guitar
My guitar over HR
I choose my guitar
My guitar over HR
Oh yeah
