Lyrics
Verse 1:
The cubicle walls still closing in,
A different day, but the same old din,
Dreaming of a life far away,
From this call centre disarray.
Chorus:
Welcome back to the call centre grind,
Where hope is lost and sanity's declined,
Battling through the endless queue,
In this abyss, what can we do?
Verse 2:
Coffee stains and flickering lights,
Another day of customer fights,
Policies tighter than a vice,
In this job, there's no paradise.
Chorus:
Welcome back to the call centre grind,
Where hope is lost and sanity's declined,
Battling through the endless queue,
In this abyss, what can we do?
Bridge:
Counting seconds, dreaming of escape,
From this office's relentless drape,
A better life just out of reach,
On some distant, sunlit beach.
Chorus:
Welcome back to the call centre grind,
Where hope is lost and sanity's declined,
Battling through the endless queue,
In this abyss, what can we do?
Verse 3:
Colleagues sigh with the same despair,
We’re all prisoners in this lair,
But beyond this bleak façade,
We crave a life that’s unmarred.
Where hope is lost and sanity's declined,
Battling through the endless queue,
In this abyss, what can we do?
Verse 3:
Colleagues sigh with the same despair,
We’re all prisoners in this lair,
But beyond this bleak façade,
We crave a life that’s unmarred.
(instrumental)
Chorus:
Welcome back to the call centre grind,
Where hope is lost and sanity's declined,
Battling through the endless queue,
In this abyss, what can we do?
Outro:
One day we'll break these chains, be free,
From this call centre purgatory,
Till then, we fight, we strive, we yearn,
For a better place, a brighter turn.
(slows to silence)
We crave a life that’s unmarred.
Chorus:
Welcome back to the call centre grind,
Where hope is lost and sanity's declined,
Battling through the endless queue,
In this abyss, what can we do?
Outro:
One day we'll break these chains, be free,
From this call centre purgatory,
Till then, we fight, we strive, we yearn,
For a better place, a brighter turn.
(slows to silence)
