Song title: Jane Siberry - Mein Bitte

Edit By: 216.73.216.105

I want a good deal
 better if it's free
 but I charge a lot
 I want more money
 don't work to work
 just want more pay
 cut corners here
 make more that way

(meanwhile...)

i work in a large room
 (i work in a room that's large and bare)
 i'm at this workbench every day
 (i never miss a day)
 i keep my tools very organized
 (I have a special place
 for all my tools)
 this tinny radio is all i play
 (i love music)

i'm working on this new invention
 (and i'm really, really excited about it)
 i think it needs something extra here
 (in the evenings i read tool catalogues)
 i'm studying the grain of my workbench
 (i can fix anything you like)
 i'm humming a tune while i wait
 for the answer to appear
 when i get stuck i go fishing
 put in the clutch so to speak and glide
 i coast among the rabble
 and the right words
 in my work i take great pride

(meanwhile...)

i need more things
 i need more money
 don't want to work
 want things for free
 cut corners here
 make more that way
 i have no pride
 the world is unfair
 wah...

my shop is a long meadow
 in a winding landscape
 in a series of elevations
 with a few cows
 and a babbling brook

i love to do what i love to do
 this excludes anything i don't like to do
 the pleasure is in the peace of mind
 the pleasure is mine
 ...mein bitte...
