Wake up, head out Punch in, get down Working all day To rake in that minimum wage Go home, back aches Lay down, wide awake Waiting all night for the sunrise to come Start it all over again
The days go on More of the same Old shit goes on Going insane
Burning the flame from the wick of youth Drawing it closer to blowing the fuse Dousing the pain with liquor abuse Drowning your sorrows, nothing to lose Counting each hour that slowly rolls by Year after year in the blink of an eye Day at a time you keep telling yourself Praying someday that you'll make your way out of this hell
Cash in the check just enough to go on Chasing the bills til they're gone Stack up the deck put it down on the house Waiting to lose it all Slaving away just to pay off a debt Nothing to save when you're old Starving you trade in your name for a bone While boss fills his pockets with gold
Every day and it's early to rise Never to get out on time 7:00 AM to 11:05 That ain't four hours We work til the night
Able and young you were glowing with hope Dreaming of making it through Now you've grown old and it's too late to turn Failure fills up your boots 30 years later the same dead end job Digging away from the soul No breaks to have til you're broken in half Cast off what's left to the hole
5 extra minutes each day on the line No chance get out on time Chained up inside til 11:05 No way to live, no way to leave Run out of luck and you're out on the streets
So it begins All over again It never ends When will this end?Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
