How in the world did I wind up here
I don't know
I was happy as a butcher's dog
With the status quo
I could feed my family and pay my bills
My American Dream was alive and well
Everything was fine
Until it wasn't
Everything was fine
Until it wasn't
I never even saw it coming
In the blink of an eye the world I knew
Lay shattered on the ground
Everything was fine
Until it wasn't
Twenty five years didn't mean a thing
Don't ya know
To a company that's more concerned
With their profit flow
When the word came down and the layoffs started
All of my experience was disregarded
Everything was fine
Until it wasn't
Everything was fine
Until it wasn't
I never even saw it coming
In the blink of an eye the world I knew
Lay shattered on the ground
Everything was fine
Until it wasn't
We've been downsized, outsourced
Just plain sacked
These jobs have gone away
They ain't coming back
Everything was fine
Until it wasn't
I never even saw it coming
In the blink of an eye the world I knew
Lay shattered on the ground
Everything was fine
Until it wasn't
