Building #2

Post by Atehequa » August 3rd, 2014, 4:32 pm

I can say this is truly a scary and most evil place
A deviant administration and subservient peons
Forensic patients awaiting trial and long term NGRIs
Hearing those terrible screams inside Building #2
The ghastly sounds of insanity and unspeakable horror
Another Friday at work and I shouldn't be feeling blue

Whether millionaire directors or common laborers
Voluptuous secretaries in short skirts making coffee
Psychiatrists, psychologists and various therapists
Cameras upon cameras always watching most all of us
Moles and dirty little snitches earning promotions
Hidden listening devices in case anyone makes a fuss.

Those who are alive one day and quite dead on the next
A Cambodian physician, licensed angel of death with a syringe
Promotional ladders, payoffs and books of their success
Those in their care, experimental guinea pigs for BIG PHARMA
The years of playing this corrupt system and making a mint
I wonder if these workplace ruling elite are affected by karma

Quite obvious, this workplace betokens a corrupt system
The facility's director and his office mistress in a broom closet
Then it's off to a five star lunch the rest of the working day
And on this particular Sunday evening I'm again feeling blue
Knowing how swiftly Monday morning will be hard upon me
Having to hear those terrible screams while inside Building #2

"Another Friday at work and I shouldn't be feeling blue"

and especially

"And on this particular Sunday evening I'm again feeling blue
Knowing how swiftly Monday morning will be hard upon me"

grim for sure and something inconceivable to most....good details
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading
