lyrics

Guess I’m alive?
Or am I asleep in life’s waiting room?
A clock puncher
Like my father and his father before me

Overworked underpaid
Sell my soul for minimum-wage

Chump change for chumps
Losing time for someone else’s suit and a dime
Our Working Life
Time well spent clocked in checks out
Assembly line out the door
A bitter grind
How can we work to live and not live to work...

Overworked underpaid
Sell my soul for minimum-wage
I wanted more I thought I’d
Saved myself from mundane

A silhouette wants more more more
Assembly line out the door door door
Who even was I before before before?
Our Life’s work and we’re all still poor
Working waking Life
Waking working Life

Overworked underpaid
Sell my soul for minimum-wage
I wanted more I thought I’d
Saved myself from mundane.
