The Millennial Shuffle
The Millennial Shuffle
I found out today I'm not the only one in this factory
That got a higher education and a costly degree
I did what they told me and I followed my heart
Now I'm talking to you while stacking boxes of parts
Followed the lines that they drew out for me
Now I'm stuck with a debt and poverty
Took advantage of me when I was in my youth
I donned your horse blinders and accepted your truth
I've a young looking face, you say I lack the experience
Bearing a collar on a freshly pressed shirt, you won't take me serious
How am I to succeed if I'm slowly deteriorating
My knowledge unused, my creativity diminishing
Your games a diversion, we know they're corrupt
The rat race a perversion, it's my path you obstruct

Nice!! Sounds like a very apt description of the millennial dilemma. The system shoves everyone into spending thousands of dollars on education and then does nothing to help you when its over.
