What Am I Doin' Here?
Lyrics
What Am I Doin' Here?
- W Ross Campbell (SOCAN)
​
Vs I
What Am I Doin' Here? ---here in Metropolitan Hell?
What Am I Doin' Here? ...Software...Hard Hard Sell
What Am I Doin' Here? Stuck in this Cognitive Cave
What Am I Doin' Here? Just Punching In my Binary Grave
​
(Chor)
As a child I dreampt I'd be a Bigshot---I didn't know what was entailed
Now I'm stuck in Middle Management---I've made it all the way to Middle Management
Despite the Stupid Mistakes of my Youth
Why couldn't I have been Nailed---I could have Learned a Trade in Jail
​
​
Vs II
​
What Am I Doin' Here? ---with Nobody else but Machines
What Am I Doin' Here? Can anyone understand what that means?
What Am I Doin' Here? I'm the only Biological Cog
What Am I Doin' Here? Just Humping this Digital Dog
​
(Chor)
As a child I dreampt I'd be a Bigshot---I didn't know what was entailed
Now I'm stuck in Middle Management---I've made it all the way to Middle Management
Despite the Stupid Mistakes of my Youth
Why couldn't I have been Failed---I could have learned to Ride the Rails
