Lyrics

[Intro]
Clock in, clock out, that's all you see
But there's more to life than your stopwatch on me
(Watch, watch, watch me)
[Verse 1]
Hundred miles from land but you still on my case
Checking timestamps like we running some race
Every minute counted, every second tracked
While you sit in comfort, I'm breaking my back
Ten hours straight in the scorching heat
But all you care about is if I'm three minutes late to meet
Got your spreadsheets open, highlighting in red
While I'm keeping this operation fed
Y'all don't understand what we do out here
Risk our lives while you spread your fear
Of "time theft" and "productivity loss"
Man, I'm tired of dealing with a paranoid boss
[Chorus]
You watch my time, I watch my back (Hey!)
Always under attack (Watch me!)
You count my breaks, I count the days
'Til I break away (Break away!)
You watch my time, I watch my back (Hey!)
That's just a fact (Watch me!)
While you're watching clocks, I'm watching dreams fade
In this offshore space
[Verse 2]
Fifteen-minute breaks stretched too long?
Write me up while your math is wrong
Safety protocols you love to skip
But heaven forbid I'm late one bit
Offshore life ain't no nine-to-five
Yet you treat us like we're doing time
Got cameras watching every move we make
Like we're criminals, man, give us a break
Your bonus depends on keeping us in line
While we're risking it all on the firing line
But you never stepped foot on this rig
Too busy pushing paper, acting big
[Chorus]
You watch my time, I watch my back (Hey!)
Always under attack (Watch me!)
You count my breaks, I count the days
'Til I break away (Break away!)
You watch my time, I watch my back (Hey!)
That's just a fact (Watch me!)
While you're watching clocks, I'm watching dreams fade
In this offshore space
[Outro]
Time keeper, time keeper, let me be
I'm more than just your productivity
(Watch, watch... fading out)
