Wake up and shake myself out of bed again
Shaking the day down in my head and then
Its 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, cant let it grind to a halt
Cant stop and look at the mess and then find out its my fault
I cant stop for a single minute
I know hell, well, Im living in it
No time to stop at all, Ive got to jump through the hoops
My job, well, its a nine to five nightmare
Im serving whiskey, stale wit, and beer
Come on in, howve you been? have I met ya?
Whatll it be now, what can I get ya?
My job, well its a nightmare
And every day from nine to five Im there
No time to stop and assess, cant let it grind to a halt
Cant stop and look at the mess and then find out its my fault
I cant stop for a single minute
I know hell, well, Im living in it
No time to stop at all, Ive got to jump through the hoops
Roll over, sit up and beg
Well Id much rather lie down and play dead
Here comes another hoop
Holidays have got to be the worst
Ive seen so many Ive got it well rehearsed
Joy to the world, hark the hey, let me hear it
Deck the halls, trim the tree, thats the spirit
Holidays are not for me, chop down the tree
Theyve got to be the worst
Im old and set in my ways, no stopping now, its a shame
But in my much younger days Id stop and Id take the blame
Im alright if I dont know and cant see
Ill live in hell, till the day, that they plant me
No time to stop at all, Ive got to jump through the hoops
Roll over, sit up and beg
Well Id much rather(3x)...lie down and play dead
All over so long my friend
So long all over the end
