The Seven Brut Refusals

[Guitar solo intro] [spoken intro]： “At work, I adhere to seven principles of inaction.” [Verse 1] What I know, I won't do, for there is nothing new to acquire. What I don't know, I can't do, for how can one perform the unknown? [Chorus] In the realms of work, there are lines that I won't cross, In pursuit of something more, of a deeper cause. [Verse 2] What's urgent, I avoid, for haste often leads to mistakes. What isn't urgent, I postpone, for what need is there to hasten the unwarranted? [Chorus] In the forest of demands, I've paths that I won't tread, For Life's more worth, and time's well spent instead. [Verse 3] What I disdain, I dismiss, for how can one commit to the undesired? What others shun, I too shun, for why should I undertake what’s collectively forsaken? [Chorus] From the shadows of apathy, to the highlands of resolve,We draw our maps, between the lines we've scrolled. [humorous interlude] [humorous interlude] [Outro ] What others do, I forgo, for what purpose is there in repeating what's been done? [End] [Outro ] What others do, I forgo, for what purpose is there in repeating what's been done? In the realms of work, there are lines that I won't cross, In pursuit of something more, of a deeper cause. [End] A man sitting at an office desk doing work [End]
