Work

Work all day, that’s all I do, just the way they taught me to Spend all day, use half my brain, my mind’s on you or I’d go insane, hmmm hmmm It’s the same every day: overworked and underpaid Beat my heart, against the wall, I pick it up and rise above it all And I work—‘cause I’m lucky just to have a job Work—‘cause I know it’s work or starve Work—it’s the only thing I can do, yeah Jerk ethic, no control, dream detour, lacking goals I should be brave, and leave the race but I’m afraid I’ll lose my place So I work—‘cause I’m lucky just to have a job Work—‘cause I know it’s work or starve Work—it’s the only thing I can do When I get home at night I want to show you that I love you, love you for keeps You wanna prove you love me too But not right now ‘cause I’m falling asleep! Ooh! Work! Work! Work! Let’s play Stickin' tubes in TV’s, I’d rather cure some disease Go back to school? Maybe I will But now I’m work-work-working just to play my bills And I work—‘cause I’m lucky just to have a job Work—‘cause I know it’s work or starve Work—it’s the only thing I can do, I can do, yeah yeah yeah Work! Work! Work! Work!....
