Company Man lyrics

It seems you`ve been living on your own
Lonely and free
Looking to make yourself known
Same as me
Well I see you in the public eyes
I see you`re looking fine
The boy would be a businessman
And he signs the bottom line

(Chorus)
Singing company man, do what you can with my name
Rock`n`roll, man here I am
I`m stacking my claim to fame

He`s got the smiling face of a friend
Still you`re not quite certain you know him
The smile turns into a grin
What do you owe him
You know you owe him

So if there`s something you do well
Something you`re proud of
Better to save some for yourself
If that`s allowed
The crowd will never know you
You`ll hardly know yourself
They`ll turn you `round and blow you up
`Til you think you`re someone else

- Chorus -

He can turn your time to gold
You better make as much as you can my friend
`Cause his money will turn you old
And they need a young man
The job takes a young man
