The CEO
Liner Notes
#acoustic
A labor protest song, but this time for a psychological purpose — some early morning parts work on the subject of self rebellion. What if you didn’t trust yourself to give direction to your own life?
Lyrics
I do not like these directions
That come down from upstairs
Why can’t we take suggestions
From somebody who cares
We strain until we sweat
We press until we bleed
Who ever thought that we could get
These plans to succeed
The CEO I find
Is not well qualified
And I should know
I am the CEO
To make a crisis from a normal day
Mountains out of hills
That does not take an MBA
Those are no special skills
A basic level of attention
Is not too much to expect
And did I fail to mention
The value of respect
The CEO I find
Is not well qualified
And I should know
I am the CEO
These latest plans and strategies
Are no more than a whim
We suffer the indignities
The odds we face are slim
Leadership cannot be seen
As some God-given right
Reducing others to machines
It’s time to stand and fight
The CEO I find
Is not well qualified
And I should know
I am the CEO

Very cool tune that fits the genre well with a unique twist
