Caged
Text by Janine Günther

I worked so hard, I tried my best,
no thanks, well done or take a rest.
I'm told to work harder, work faster,
Can't resist 'cause he's my master.
I want out, don't wanna be a slave.
It doesn't matter, how much I gave.

Have to spend all my time,
sitting in the office room.
feel like I had done a crime.
It's dark, no light, no loom.

I'm caged
inside the system.
I'm caged
please release me.
I'm caged
inside the system
I'm caged
just let me free.

But right now, I'm sitting here.
I feel awful, it is severe.
I take a paper, I take a pen.
My ideas, have to write them.
My boss will shout, I'm not allowed,
I don't mind, the inner voice too loud.

Have to spend all my time,
sitting in the office room.
feel like I had done a crime.
It's dark, no light, no loom.

I'm caged
inside the system.
I'm caged
please release me.
I'm caged
inside the system.
I'm caged
just let me free.
