lyrics

Fuck Work

Wake up early every fucking morning (Fuck work!)
work my fucking ass off every day (Fuck work!)
Few hours of leisure in the evening (Fuck work!)
for most of my life it’s been this way (Fuck work!)

Most everything revolves around my job (Fuck work!)
When to be there - what to fucking wear (Fuck work!)
How I’m gonna get there how much time to sleep (Fuck work!)
Decades of my life no time to spare (Fuck work!)

The tyranny of the time clock - it’s me they fucking own
I’m too tired when I come home to fight all the things I have been shown.

Work makes a mockery of freedom. (Fuck work!)
The paycheck, the carrot or the stick? (Fuck work!)
So many occupational diseases each year (Fuck work!)
In the US that’s half a million sick. (Fuck work)

Leisure time is spent to recover (Fuck work!)
From all the fucking hard work that we do (Fuck work!)
All our lives spent looking at our watches (Fuck work!)
Bosses watching over me and you (Fuck work!)

Selling ourselves on the installment plan- it’s us they fucking own
We’re the only species in the goddamn world who has to pay to have a home

Alarm clock ringing. Drag yourself up out of bed.
Put on yer costume. Drag a comb across yer head
Alarm clock ringing. Drag yourself up out of bed
Another uniform. Conformity instead.

Wake up early every fucking morning (Fuck work!)
work my fucking ass off every day (Fuck work!)
Few hours of leisure in the evening (Fuck work!)
for most of my life it’s been this way (Fuck work!)

Leisure time is spent to recover (Fuck work!)
From all the fucking hard work that we do (Fuck work!)
All our lives spent looking at our watches (Fuck work!)
Bosses watching over me and you (Fuck work!)

Alarm clock ringing. Drag yourself up out of bed.
Another working stiff. A slave the walking dead
Alarm clock ringing. Drag yourself up out of bed.
Is your job your identity instead?
