I ain’t no Pavlov’s dog
I ain’t no Pavlov’s dog
But you could call me a runt
Mr Maslow assumes a lot
And my boss, well, he’s a cunt
He ventured to the shed today
‘Cos he’s a man with no shame
Talked about a beer with the boys
Wouldn’t even know our names
He talks about the company
Like it affects us all the same
But I’m on twenty two an hour
I ain’t got a bean to my name
So when he says to sacrifice
And try and save a buck
He never mentions his bonus, so
I really don’t give a fuck
I may be dumb, but I ain’t stupid
I know how the lever works
Pavlov’s dog may get a feed
But a select few get the perks
I coulda climbed the ladder
I coulda taken the bait
But I won’t rise above the pack
At the expense of me mates
And from down here that’s the problem
With the whole fucking game
It’s self interest on the way up
Down, we share the blame
