Training Days

(Verse 1) In this room with chairs so hard, The trainer’s voice like a lullaby, But I must stay awake, oh yes indeed, Resisting the urge to rest my eyes. (Chorus) Oh, training days, oh training days, Don’t let me drift to dreamland’s haze, Powerpoints and monotone, Trying hard to keep my eyes from closing. (Verse 2) The clock hands move at a sluggish pace, My pen’s now a wand, casting off sleep, Each slide’s a battle, I must face, To stay alert and not count sheep. (Bridge) Coffee’s my lifeline, coursing through my veins, The fourth cup now, but who’s to blame? For this endless cycle, this training grind, I’d sell my soul for some shut-eye time. (Verse 3) Now the trainer’s voice fades away, As my head nods like a metronome, But I’m jolted back by a pointed gaze, No sleeping on the company’s dime! (Chorus) Oh, training days, oh training days, Don’t let me drift to dreamland’s haze, Powerpoints and monotone, Trying hard to keep my eyes from closing. (Outro) Oh training days, oh training days, [Oh training days, oh training days,] Oh training days, oh training days, [Oh training days, oh training days,] The struggle is real in this training maze, But I’ll survive, though barely awake, For the day’s end and the dreams I’ll chase.
