[Lyric] Tommy Turnbolt (The Golden Bubbles)

[Verse 1]
Tommy, oh Turnbolt
He's been working now for two years
At the local Big Buy
He's making minimum wage
He looks too old for his age
They don't hire winners at the A/V store
And every day he hates more than before

[Verse 2]
So he stands near the big TVs and whispers this prayer:
"God, my shift manager
Whoever's out there listening
If you could just please, please
Come down and help me
I can't go on living this way"

[Verse 3]
That was a big mistake
He didn't even know
What he had set in place
And the company knows that it can trade your soul
Yeah who needs a metaphysical realm
You're bussing your cheap ass downtown
Just to take the 117 out to your place
[Verse 4]
Tommy Turnbolt
Lives with his brother
In a duplex apartment
French fry carpet
Things are soon gonna change
Buckle up young man

[Verse 5]
Tommy Turnbolt
You could do wonders
But you're down in the basement
Work ethic face it
Like a 2 inch slug
It's time to rocketship bud

[Verse 6]
Tommy Turnbolt
Earth has been waiting
For a man of your greatness
To take us new places
Not just sell us a phone
But to give us a home

[Verse 7]
Tommy Turnbolt
Ground floor associate
Can you sense all the power
Rich regal honor
You're a company man!
And you'll be richer than Pan
Oh ooh
[Outro]
