Just Keep Swimming, Just keep Swimming...

I am a sardine
Stuffed in a can
Shoulder to shoulder
With the man
Standing next to me.
Full of brine,
And covered in scales.
Produced on a fish farm
Like the man
Standing next to me.
Identical to me.
Same music.
Same clothes.
Same sardine tin.
Full of brine,
And covered in scales,
I am a sardine
Stuffed in a can,
Working shit jobs,
Getting shit pay,
Thinking outside of the box when they say that I can,
A box with no future,
Moving in shoals,
Feeding fat cats,
I am a sardine,
Stuffed in a can,
Shoulder to shoulder,
Stuffed full of brine,
Cold
Dead
And lifeless.
