Regina Spector Ghost of Corporate Future Lyrics

Man walks out of his apartment,
It is raining he's got no umbrella.
He starts running beneath the awnings,
Trying to save his suit.
Trying to save his suit.
Trying to dry and to trying to dry,
but no good.

When he gets to the crowded subway platform,
He takes off both of his shoes.
He steps right in to somebody's fat lugie,
And everyone that sees him says "eww".
Everyone that sees him says eww

But he doesn't care 'cos last night,
he got a visit from the,
ghost of corporate future.

The ghost that take off both your shoes,
whatever chances you get,
especially when they're wet,
he also said...

Imagine you go away,
On a business trip one day.
And when you come back home,
Your children have grown and you never made your wife moan.
Your children have grown and you never made your wife moan.

People make you nervous,
you think the world is ending,
and everybody's features have some how started blending.

And everything is plastic,
and everyone's sarcastic,
and all your food is frozen and needs to be defrosted.

You'd think the world was ending,
You'd think the world was ending,
You'd think the world was ending right now. (x2)

Well maybe you should just drink a lot less coffee,
and never ever watch the ten o'clock news.
Maybe you should kiss someone nice,
or lick a rock, or both.

Maybe you should cut your own hair,
'cos that can be so funny.
It doesn't cost any money,
and it always grows back, hair grows even after you're dead.

People are just people,
they shouldn't make you nervous.
The world is ever-lasting,
it's coming and it's going.

If you don't toss your plastic,
the streets won't be so plastic.
And if you kiss somebody then,
both of you'll get practice.

The world is ever-lasting,
the dirtballs in your pocket.
The dirtballs in your pocket,
and take off both your shoes.

'Cos people are just people,
people are just people,
people are just people,
like you. (x2)

The world is ever-lasting,
it's coming and it's going. (x2)

It's coming and it's going.
