Got up in the morning
To find myself a future
In the Sunday classfied
But then I spilled my coffee
And then the telephone was ringing
Guess I got distracted
But hey at least I tried
And there`s just oh so many hours in a day
And oh so many little things get in the way
Like who`s on Oprah and Rosie
I think my bed it too cozy
Yeah that must be it
The reason I can`t motivate
do-do-do-do-do-do
Gotta get a life
do-do-do-do-do-do
Gotta get it soon
Cuz rent is due
And cardboard boxes ain`t cool
Get up Monday make an afternoon appointment
Fix my hair as best I can
And then I ride on over but
By the time I get there
The job`s been filled dear,
But thanks again
And there`s just oh so many reasons they can find
You`re always either under or over-qualified
So who`s on Oprah and Rosie
I`ll go back to be where it`s cozy
Yeah that`s my plan
Maybe next week try again
do-do-do-do-do-do
Gotta get a life
do-do-do-do-do-do
Gotta get it soon
Cuz rent is due
And cardboard boxes ain`t cool
Hours pass and the days go by
And I still haven`t done a thing
And I`m not proud of my laziness
But life can be discouraging
do-do-do-do-do-do
Gotta get a life
do-do-do-do-do-do
Gotta get it soon
Cuz rent is due
And cardboard boxes ain`t cool
