No Hero

Paper pusher, meeting attendee, desk
jockey
They tell me I am a warrior
Fighting against the rising tide of
email
Putting together briefings that no one
will see
Chasing rank like a white whale
People stop in the store to thank me
Smile and nod, but no reply
I am no hero
They tell me I am a warrior
Paper pusher, meeting attendee, desk
