It's just a numbers game (after all)

(After all ) It's just a numbers game
7200 minutes in five days all to waste wish away
2880 minutes in two, so precious and hold on too, cherish but the feast
is over fast
So may minutes to wait so few minutes to do
432000 minutes between monthly pay cheques, wasting time praying it
away.
Something's wrong
Who organised this life
I want off, I demand another day 1440 minutes more, (so no longer I'll
feel guilty that society's made me such a bore)
To four days of wishing life away, a 57\% loss, (a little gain of just
14\%) 4-3 sounds feels so much better than 5-2.
Make it even better with fortnightly pay checks, what the heck free our
souls, change the goal posts,
Don't let numbers rule our day and minutes.
Human waste, capital gain, us all in the usual pain,
so much for modern civilisation,
where really the machine does all the decision making.
