NOTHING’S GETTING DONE

Shooting steam from every orifice
Amidst frenzied work at the office.
Trying to find our place in the sun,
But nothing's getting done.

Saving every nickel, every dime
Just can’t make up for lost time.
Forgetting passion, forgoing fun,
Yet, nothing's getting done.

Who is there to take the blame?
No, they’ll simply raise their game.
Appearing as things nicely run,
In reality, nothing's getting done.

Waiting for a chance to have a say,
If the status quo is here to stay?
But now the non-event has begun,
You know nothing's getting done.

Slaving to the whims of the majority
Is to be part of this mass insanity.
Relieving us a duty we can’t shun
Because nothing’s getting done.
