Lyrics

  1. (Playful but cautionary tone, upbeat tempo)
  2. Clicked a link from HR's name,
  3. Said I missed a payroll claim.
  4. Logged right in, gave up my pass,
  5. They drained my creds so fast.
  6. My blood is ice, could blow my career,
  7. Fell again for a social engineer.
  8. Fishing mail, or pretext trope,
  9. Spin the tale, I’m the dope.
  10. Preying on my hope and fear,
  11. The ever-present social engineer.
  12. Caller said from I-T desk,
  13. "Need your MFA, it’s just a test."
  14. Voice so smooth, I thought it’s real,
  15. Now they’ve got the master seal.
  16. Package waiting, click the note,
  17. Shipping charge on file I wrote.
  18. Looked legit, but I was blind,
  19. Now malware’s running in my line.
  20. My blood is ice, could blow my career,
  21. Fell again for a social engineer.
  22. Fhishing mail, or pretext trope,
  23. Spin the tale, I’m the dope.
  24. Preying on my hope and fear,
  25. The ever-present social engineer.
  26. LinkedIn message from a peer,
  27. Said "let’s connect, new job is here."
  28. Opened file, "strategic plan,"
  29. Trojan horse was in that scan.
  30. It’s not just mail, it’s voice and text,
  31. They’ll catch you slipping when you’re stressed.
  32. Train your mind, verify,
  33. Or you’ll watch your system die.
  34. My blood is ice, could blow my career,
  35. Fell again for a social engineer.
  36. Fhishing mail, or pretext trope,
  37. Spin the tale, I’m the dope.
  38. Preying on my hope and fear,
  39. The ever-present social engineer.
  40. Check the link, confirm the call,
  41. One wrong click could wreck it all.
