Dollar William Hue and Cry

Ah, Dollar William

He's got dirt on his shirt and he's out of his mind
In a panic attack, going deaf, dumb and blind
Got a little dictator with the boss on his back, now, now
He will shuffle Joe's papers and he'll drop him in deep
And he'll give Mr. Neuyman a kiss on each cheek
And he'll do what he has just to get along as fast as he can

If only the world would shift down a speed
Corporate ladders with snakes at your heels
If you keep taking, you never can leave
That's why I'm asking you
Dollar William, what do you need, my boy?
I'm asking you now
Dollar William, what do you need, my boy?

Feels like a neck jerk, stilettos click
She's so professional, she makes him sick
But he won't make the grade 'cause the girl's always in his way
Got his head in his fingers, shedding skyscraper tears
And he's there in the morning 'cause nobody cares
No, they don't give a damn, don't give a damn, no, no, no

If only the world would shift down a speed
Corporate ladders with snakes at your heels
If you keep taking, you never can leave
I'm asking you now
Dollar William, what do you need, my boy? (Need, my boy)
I'm asking you now
Dollar William, what do you need, my boy? (What do you need?)
Tell me, tell me now
Dollar William, what do you need, boy?
Oh, Dollar William
