Work Song Lyrics - At The Queen Elizabeth Hall - Robert Calvert

You work all night 

And it's really frightening 

'Cause you're so ambitious 

It's just a habit 

That you have to grab it 

You're avaricious 

I know you'll make it 

But I just can't take it 

You're so ambitious 

Nothing's ever going to make you stop 

Not even when you've made it to the top 

You're a workaholic 

It's so hyperbolic 

You're so ambitious 

You're so ambitious 

You're so ambitious 

For the road 

You're a finance wizard 

A Stock Exchange lizard 

'Cause you're so ambitious 

Always talking deals 

Turning cogs and wheels 

You're so ambitious 

What has happened to the girl I knew? 

When you're rich and famous you'll just say we're through 

You want a Rolls-Royce motor 

And an eighty-foot boat, oh 

You're so ambitious 

Your satisfaction 

Is a new transaction 

'Cause you're so ambitious 

Your excitation 

Is negotiation 

'Cause you're so ambitious 

You want a house that's Georgian 

And ahead you're forgin' 

You're so ambitious 

Nothing's ever going to make you stop 

Not even when you've made it to the top 

You're so ambitious 

Am-ambitious 

You've got a pinstriped suit 

A polka-dot computer 

You're so ambitious 

Your calculator 

It says "see you later" 

Its voice sounds vicious 

I know you'll make it 

But I just can't take it 

You're so ambitious 

Nothing's ever going to make you stop 

Not even when you've made it to the top
