| wake up and shake myself out of bed again
|
| shaking the day down in my head and then
|
| it’s up and out, rise and shine, on the double
|
| no time to slack, attack, and tackle the trouble
|
| shake myself out of bed again
|
| no time to stop and assess, can’t let it grind to a halt
|
| can’t stop and look at the mess and then find out it’s my fault
|
| I can’t stop for a single minute
|
| I know hell, well, I’m living in it no time to stop at all, I’ve got to jump through the hoops
|
| my job, well, it’s a nine to five nightmare
|
| I’m serving whiskey, stale wit, and beer
|
| come on in, how’ve you been? |
| Have I met ya?
|
| what’ll it be now, what can I get ya?
|
| my job, well it’s a nightmare
|
| and every day from nine to five I’m there
|
| no time to stop and assess, can’t let it grind to a halt
|
| can’t stop and look at the mess and then find out it’s my fault
|
| I can’t stop for a single minute
|
| I know hell, well, I’m living in it no time to stop at all, I’ve got to jump through the hoops
|
| roll over, sit up and beg
|
| well I’d much rather lie down and play dead
|
| here comes another hoop
|
| holidays have got to be the worst
|
| I’ve seen so many I’ve got it well rehearsed
|
| joy to the world, hark the hey, let me hear it deck the halls, trim the tree, that’s the spirit
|
| holidays are not for me, chop down the tree
|
| they’ve got to be the worst
|
| I’m old and set in my ways, no stopping now, it’s a shame
|
| but in my much younger days I’d stop and I’d take the blame
|
| I’m alright if I don’t know and can’t see
|
| I’ll live in hell, till the day, that they plant me no time to stop at all, I’ve got to jump through the hoops
|
| roll over, sit up and beg
|
| well I’d much rather (3x)…lie down and play dead
|
| all over so long my friend
|
| so long all over the end |
