The Peter Principle

from Groundwork by Animal Byproducts

/

lyrics

Peter, your predicted progress
Peter, was it true?
Peter, that they found your thinking
periwinkle blue?

Peter, placed as prime impostor
presiding over proles
problems he produced keep people
falling into holes

Peter pushed the puppets down
by pulling on their strings
placation, pacification,
pleasant plastic things

Peter pushed the pencil in
to the paper's aching face
Peter pushed the pencil in
to nail us in place

Peters past their prime promoted

Peter, now your plan's pronounced
it's dead before its born
instead we need those led by greed
to pickle us a corn
