Scene 9: "Pay Day"

from How to Hire by Satomage

lyrics

EUGENE
Quote. I had a tough time getting my job here and I started for peanuts. Now these young kids are coming in and demanding these fantastic salaries. Unquote.

APPLICANT ONE
The climb up is better than the fall down. Make it last. Take your time.

EUGENE
This is because we managers are oriented towards things, not people.

APPLICANT TWO
My work pants started to feel like pajamas but I knew my comfort wouldn't last.

APPLICANT ONE
How much are you willing to give up to have it all? Everything?

APPLICANT TWO
I've worked where the shelves hold the potential for broken glass.

APPLICANT ONE
How much can you lose just to win?

APPLICANT TWO
It cut my feet until I learned to thicken my skin!

CHORUS
We forgot fortune. Luck lacks us.

APPLICANT ONE
Black tombs, waiting rooms, all mean the same to me. Spoken insecurity. I can't find anything. White floors, closed doors, following obscecently. Constantly evading me. Always out of reach. I've got to get out.

APPLICANT TWO
I've got to get back in.

APPLICANT ONE
I need something new.

APPLICANT TWO
I need to be better.

APPLICANT ONE
I'm better than this.

APPLICANT TWO
I need to prove myself. Why do I fear change?

APPLICANT ONE
We fear what we don't know.

APPLICANT TWO
Why do we fear change?

APPLICANT ONE
We fear being alone.
