about

6:13am. 12th January 2016.

Ravi is on his way to work. Ravi is grateful to be part of something bigger than himself.

lyrics

Six A.M., I'm already in transit
It's gonna be a good day
Surely, I can sense it
(Godspeed )Godspeed me to the garden
With its ergonomic chairs and its central air-conditioning

We're so grateful, so grateful
So grateful to be part of something
Yeah we're so grateful, so grateful
So grateful to be part of something

2 pm, I've got a fever peaking
Oh, the singular ecstasy
Of data-warehousing
In the company of others
Who think like me (like me)
(Who) like the clicking and the buzzing
And the telephones ringing


Oh, the sounds of sanctuary in a crucial corner
of the eternal machinery of this grand empire
We're just zeroes and ones and we're
having all the fun yeah,
Zeroes and ones and we've got no time
to rest, no...

(cos we're)

Working all day to build the economy
Working all night to keep America happy
Working all day to build the economy
Working all night to keep America happy

(But,) what about your individual liberties?
(Fuck that shit, we're just in it for the money)

What about your cultural identities?
(Fuck that shit, we'll just buy it with your money)
(Fuck that shit, we'll just buy it with your money)
