Sinking The Boat
These initial exercises are all derived from simple proven methods to help us better gather whether you suck at your job
Please agree so we can monitor you closely
In each exercise, place an asterisk where your soul has been sucked out
(See aggressions we eat, they're like a crowbar to the jaw)
In the cage on the stage are the places where the hands fall together
In the lines on the page are the places where the hands fall together
(Why don't you stay and fuck up everything)
When you know it don't matter
If you will or you won't
Endure or cower
There's no sinking the boat
We think that nobody's home
We can assume that someone like you is alone
Didn't you abandon everyone and still expect to be treated like a superstar
The golden behaviors are all derived from number one: be successful
It is placed first because it's something you'll never be
So pay attention
Listen closely
In each exercise, place an asterisk on what might have been
When you know it don't matter
If you sink or you float
Punch a hole in the hull, smash the mast with your skull
There's no sinking the boat
When you know it don't matter
If you win or you choke
Take it out for a ride, tear it up from inside
There's no sinking the boat
When you know it don't matter
If you quit or you cope
Tell yourself it's a trap, make a mess of the map
There's no sinking the boat
When you know it don't matter
If you will or you won't
Kiss the captain goodbye, throw him over the side
There's no sinking the boat
