[Verse 1]
You wake up at 8am
I've been up since 3pm, don’t know exactly where I am
Oh, wait a minute, I'm in my room
I haven't slept or left this place in days, it feels like a tomb
I guess I better strap on my shoes
And get outside beneath the sun
And do what normal people do
[Chorus]
But I can’t work for arseholes
And I can't bludge the dole
I'd rather be broke and hungry than get my money acting funny for some evil greedy arseholes
[Verse 2]
But people do it every day
It's been happening for centuries
I guess they know no other way
I wonder what went wrong in my head
I like to think that it's something right
Because the times I tried I wished for death
And a pretty girl once said, "Hey, man
Don't be sad about a thing, you know that I'm your biggest fan?"
[Chorus]
And I'm glad you never work for arseholes
Getting out of bed at 5am to dig a bunch of stupid holes
I’m glad you stay up all night long writing all of your shitty songs
About all the greedy arseholes
[Bridge]
Sometimes I think that I should change
I’m kinda lazy, kinda hazy, makes me crazy
Think I'm going the wrong way
Sleeping through the day
I don’t care what the girls say
I'm never gonna play another song again
They're just too fucking plain and simple
Like a teenager with pimples
Like a faithful person praying
Oh, what am I even saying?
[Verse 3]
I really need to get some sleep
I tried the methods, but they never work
I'm done with counting, I think I’ll go and race some sheep
Or maybe burn some sleepy incense
But the smokes too thick and it makes me gag
It's really too intense
I guess I'll drink my housemate's wine
I'll drink the bottle dry before the sun comes up to shine
[Chorus]
And I still will not have slept a wink
It's lucky that I don't have to think
About getting out of bed and making it to work by some inhumane deadline
Just try my best not to sink
[Outro]
I drank the house dry
For the thousandth time on the sly
That could be the reason why
I never get to work for arseholes
