The Usury Elites' Way
Beverly Hillbillies
Come and listen to a story
'bout a man named Jed,
A poor college kid, barely
kept his family fed,
But then one day he talked to
a recruiter,
Who said "They'll pay ya big
bucks if ya work on a computer",
CADD that is ... CRT's ...
Microstation;
Well the first thing ya know
ol' Jed's an Engineer,
The kinfolk said "Jed move
away from here",
They said "Dallas, Texas is
the place ya oughta be",
So he drove until he felt the
heat and humidity,
Summer that is ... no shade
... even your toenails sweat;
On his first day at work they
stuck him in a cube,
Fed him a donut and sat him at
a tube,
They said "Your project's late
but we know just what to do,
Instead of 40 hours, we'll
work you fifty-two!"
Overtime that is ... Unpaid
... Mandatory
The weeks rolled by and things
were looking bad,
Some schedules got slipped and
the boss was gettin' mad,
They called another meeting
and decided on a fix,
The answer was simple, "We'll
work him sixty-six"
Tired that is ... Stressed
out ... No social life
Months turned into years and
his hair was turning gray,
Jed worked hard while his life
slipped away,
Waiting to retire when he
turned sixty-four,
Instead he got called in and
escorted out the door,
Laid-off that is ...
Downsized ... Unemployed.
Ya'll come back as a
contractor now, Ya hear?
