Lyrics

Day Job

Well, we've been here once before
And we've stuck it out for more
When we come around
We'll settle down the cracks below the floor

Has it been eleven years
Since I've stood here with my peers
And we started out to conquer doubt and Frisbee

I should've been a whole lot farther
I'm never going back to college
For just one good day job

You're not missing much for sure
Only everything that's yours
At times it fails and we're full sail in the gutter

Is this home 'cause I forgot
If it is, then thanks a lot
'Cause I can't pretend to know one end from the other

I should've been a whole lot farther
I'm never going back to college
For just one good day job

You're not missing much for sure
Only everything that's yours
At times it fails and we're full sail in the gutter

Is this home 'cause I forgot
If it is, then thanks a lot
'Cause I can't pretend to know one end from the other

I should've been a whole lot farther
I'm never going back to college
For just one good day job

I should've been a whole lot farther
I'm never going back to college
For just one good day job
Day job, day job, day job
