| I got to have my coffee when I wake up in the morning
|
| I got to have my tea when the sun goes down
|
| Every page of my life, the same old story
|
| Nine to five, day after day I can be found
|
| Hangin' around that water cooler (workin' everyday)
|
| Five o' clock can’t come sooner (workin' my life away)
|
| Waitin' for the evening to roll around (workin' everyday)
|
| My shift is over, I’m highway bound day after day
|
| I get no relief when my working day is done
|
| Just to sit in rush hour man, you know that ain’t no fun
|
| I could be sailing off the coast of some tropical island
|
| Leanin' in the shade of some big palm trees
|
| I should be out chasin' girls or sitting at home learning violin
|
| And doing all those other things I said I’d do eventually, instead I’m
|
| I get no relief when my working day is done
|
| Just to sit in rush hour man, you know that stuff just ain’t no fun
|
| I pray for no more water coolers, five o' clock to come much sooner
|
| That some day, some night, sweet relief will come to me
|
| Day after day
|
| (Workin' every day)
|
| (Workin' my life away)
|
| (Workin' every day) |
