lyrics

Soulsucker, Sucking out my soul
Got me in a hole, Soulsucker

I got too many obligations
Ain't no time for recreation
It's a dire situation
and the source of my frustration
Think I need a relocation
Or a permanent vacation
‘cause I feel this occupation's
Gonna be my ruination, uh huh

I ain’t workin' 9 to 5
'cause I been working 5 to 9
The man has got me on the line
For mandatory overtime
Can’t afford to get behind
Or else the contract gets declined
Man it’s enough to drive a crazy man right outta his mind

Soulsucker, Sucking out my soul
Got me in a hole, Soulsucker

Everybody's movin' 'bout a hundred miles a minute a day
And if you're just not keeping up you better got out of the way
Hey I'm not looking for a showdown
I'm just lookin for a slowdown
But I think we know already how
this whole things gonna go down, uh huh

I've come to the realization
I get zero relaxation
And the current situation
Isn’t meeting expectations
I’ve had every conversation
Even studied meditation
But the only thing I’ve found so far that helps is medication

Soulsucker, Sucking out my soul
Got me in a hole, Soulsucker
