Work Song Lyrics - Carolines Spine

it's another early morning, sun came up without a warning 

i never do nothing til i'm showered and clean 

got my pager, got my cuffs, a matching tie should be enough 

i never leave the house without something to eat 

an early riser by genetic, take the stairs cause i'm atheletic 

always at the office before anyone else 

i take my faxes to be copied, grab a donut, grab some coffee 

picture a diploma sitting on my shelf 

the monotony is killing me 

and i try to deny this corporate labotomy 

i need a siut of armor for a meeting, 

know i'm gonna take a beating, 

understaffed, and my department's in a crunch 

budget has become a hassle, boss is ripping me a new asshole 

says he wants an answer on his desk before lunch 

afternoon, things don't look better, 

phone machine is breaking records 

five hundred messages from who knows where 

staying late 'cause i'm a beginner, call my girlfriend, cancel dinner 

says she thinks i'm having an office affair 

the end of day, there's no solution, face traffic and pollution 

put a smile on my face i didn't get fired 

back at home to clear my head, i grab a drink, fall into bed 

forty more years until i get to retire 

the monotony is killing me 

and i try to deny this corporate labotomy
