MANPOWER, the new tune from Package

Here's a tune from the upcoming WHEN CHAINS ATTACK! that's sort of a straightforward rocker. No bells and whistles, no real furious flurries of guitar, just a wall of sound and loads and loads of Micah cymbals crashing. Recorded over a year ago and just now getting a breath of air, it's a song that I really dig but don't expect it to blow anyone away.

It's more like one of those tracks on a CD that's cool but not THE ONE you'd use to sell your friends on a band.

That said, this'd be a really fun song to do live.

MANPOWER
(lyrics: Nunziata - music: Nunziata)

The road to good times is paved with broken bones
the kind of people you'll deal with are infantile
you have to understand what you're dealing with
when you're dealing with the brain deprived

But when you close your eyes and hope that you've seen the best
they will walk over you, stomp over you
to make you feel the rest

Discontented minds...
repercussions keep you line
it's endless, breaking you apart

And the kind of life you lead will be empty
and the kind of life you feel is pain
and the kind of life you lead will be incomplete
manpower is all you'll ever be

all you'll ever be

But when the times have changed and hope is replaced by dread
cast your mind on your own, the true worker drone
and live in inside your head

Discontented minds...
repercussions keep you line
it's endless, breaking you apart

And the kind of life you lead will be empty
and the kind of life you feel is pain
and the kind of life you lead will be incomplete
manpower is all you'll ever be

all you'll ever be

But if you shoulder the workload, take it and face straight ahead
what good is a life under the knife
might as well be dead

Discontented minds...
repercussions keep you line
it's endless, breaking you apart

And the kind of life you lead will be empty
and the kind of life you feel is pain
and the kind of life you lead will be incomplete
manpower is all you'll ever be

all you'll ever be

Actually, that's EXACTLY what inspired it. I was a cubicle victim as well.

For some reason, this is one of the old pieces of the poops I'm really enjoying again. FYI, I know this pretty much a forum for Micah and I to chat. Like public PM's.

So, how they hanging, M?

Admittedly, not a good first song to hear.
