The DB's - Working For Somebody Else Lyrics
At eight a.m. the alarm bell ringsAnd I shake myself awakeHalfway through the kitchen when I ask myselfCan there be some kinda mistake'Cause I'm working on somebody else's timeAnd I'm working for somebody else's dimeI used to have it all but I lost it in the fallNow I'm working for somebody elseAnd the hours are lousy, the boss is a creepBut the paycheck sure does helpAnd at five o'clock I'm out like a shotI don't take my workload homeWorking for somebody elseWorking for somebody elseWorking for somebody elseThere's no reason to be working for somebody elseNow, listenI had a girl and a car and a house with a yardNow that's all gone with the wind'Cause here it's nine a.m. and I'm standing in lineJust waiting to punch myself inSomeday at ten if I haven't come inIf they want to find me I'll beWorking for somebody elseWorking for somebody elseWorking for somebody elseThere's no reason to be working for somebody elseWorking for somebody else is fineIf you need the money and you're so inclined to beWorking for somebody elseWorking for somebody elseWorking for somebody elseThere's no reason to be working for somebody elseThere's no reason to be working for somebody elseThere's no reason to be working for somebody elseMmm, mmm, mmmHow long must this go on?I been working too hard and too long for too littleSeem like every day is just about the sameAnd it don't get any betterLord, Mr. Ford, can I please please please have a day off?
