Ghost Of Corporate Future Lyrics - Soviet Kitsch - Regina Spektor

A man walks out of his apartment 

It is raining, he's got no umbrella 

He starts running beneath the awnings 

Trying to save his suit 

Trying to save his suit 

Trying to dry and to dry and to dry but no good 

When he gets to the crowded subway platform 

He takes off both of his shoes 

He steps right into somebody's fat loogie 

And everyone who sees him says, "Eww." 

Everyone who sees him says, "Eww." 

But he doesn't care 

'Cause last night he got a visit from the 

Ghost of Corporate Future 

The ghost said, "Take off both your shoes 

Whatever chances you get 

Especially when they're wet."

He also said, "Imagine you go away 

On a business trip one day 

And when you come back home 

Your children have grown 

And you never made your wife moan 

Your children have grown 

And you never made your wife moan." 

"And people make you nervous 

You'd think the world is ending 

And everybody's features have somehow started blending 

And everything is plastic 

And everyone's sarcastic 

And all your food is frozen 

It needs to be defrosted." 

"You'd think the world was ending 

You'd think the world was ending 

You'd think the world was ending right now 

Photos 

You'd think the world was ending 

You'd think the world was ending 

You'd think the world was ending right now." 

"Well maybe you should just drink a lot less coffee 

And never ever watch the ten o'clock news 

Maybe you should kiss someone nice 

Or lick a rock, or both." 

"Maybe you should cut your own hair 

'Cause that can be so funny 

It doesn't cost any money 

And it always grows back 

Hair grows even after you're dead." 

"And people are just people 

They shouldn't make you nervous 

The world is everlasting 

It's coming and it's going 

If you don't toss your plastic 

The streets won't be so plastic 

And if you kiss somebody 

Then both of you'll get practice." 

"The world is everlasting 

Put dirtballs in your pocket 

Put dirtballs in your pocket 

And take off both your shoes." 

"'Cause people are just people 

People are just people 

People are just people like you 

People are just people 

People are just people 

People are just people like you." 

The world is everlasting 

It's coming and it's going 

The world is everlasting 

It's coming and it's going 

It's coming and it's going
