leaving the cubicle jungle
breaking free from the grind
walking the alleys
so I don’t have to fight the assholes in the streets
not the bums or the crazies,
they are safe (we would never fight)
but it is those loosening the tie
unbuttoning the top button
forgetting that there are
Others
in the street
there are Others
many, many Others
faces and backs of heads
dreaming
dreaming away
the nightmares that chase us all down
so I walk in the alleys
where it is safe
safe from dreams, safe from nightmares
because only Others
walk in the alleys
and sometimes
those are the only ones worth meeting

Loosen the tie and
Cry "Freedom"
Undo the top button and
Cry "Freedom"
Put your head above the cube and
Cry "Freedom"
Cry "Hello"
Cry anything
It's just as daring
Sharing
Anything but crunchy numbers
Or insights into further profits
Prophets have foretold
Things that will ensue
But you'll not know
With your head inside the cube
