And how did you spend your time today?
Wind down, dress down Friday!
Too busy to think, too stressed to care
Precious seconds, none to spare.

Contract deadlines, commercial need;
(Who dares to say commercial greed?)
Saving dollars, meeting goals
Are we only our job roles?

Forget that promise - home on time
to your domestic pantomime;
Oh, my beloved, you can wait
I must meet my deadline date.

I know I said that I'd be back
(That I'd give up the false fast track;)
that you're important in my life
and I'd find time to be your wife.

The kids run wild and I'm not there
It isn't true that I don't care.
Delinquency, divorce, bad health
You pay the price for corporate wealth!!
