Waiting on Worth

Wait on the wire,

wait on the wire...

(tick-tock, tick-tock) Staring at the screen,

another digital scene A clean slate,

late date, chasing after the green Client wants a revision,

make a minor division But their budget decision is a collision of

vision I'm aligning the grids,

I'm designing for kids Now I'm bidding on jobs,

raising analytical bids (click click click)

Exporting the draft, they laugh at the craft I gave them a

dozen but they want a draft of a draft Invoicing the ghost,

who boasted the most Now they're hiding away on the Pacific coast

Oh,

we draw the line,

we trace the thread But we're waiting on the invoice till we're

dead (where's the pay?) Yeah,

we shape the clay,

we work the clay But the payment is a thousand years away

(thousand years away)

Net-ninety, net-never, they think that they're clever Signing NDAs like they're bound

forever But my landlord is knocking,

the clock is just mocking The lack of my currency blocking is

shocking Pixel perfect, they said,

now they leave me on read Eating cold ramen noodles while I'm

lying in bed

(clack clack clack) (ding!) Pending...

approved... But the funds never moved.

Oh, we draw the line,

we trace the thread But we're waiting on the invoice till we're

dead (where's the pay?) Yeah,

we shape the clay,

we work the clay But the payment is a thousand years away

(thousand years away)

Still waiting... (refresh, refresh,

refresh) Outstanding balance...
