A perfect day to get out of bed
|
Shower, dress, shave, kiss you on the head
|
Then I hit the office and my head starts to swim
|
|
A perfect day to just walk around
|
See a violent movie and check the sounds
|
But even on the street, when I hear a phone ring
|
My heart starts to beat
|
When I get home I don't want you to speak
|
|
Don't talk to me about work
|
Please don't talk to me about work
|
I'm up to my eyeballs in dirt - with work, with work
|
|
How many dollars, how many sales
|
How many liars, how many tales
|
How many insults must you take in this one life
|
|
I'm in prison most of the day
|
So please excuse me, if I get this way
|
But I have got obligations to keep -
|
So be very careful when you speak
|
|
Don't talk to me about work
|
Please don't talk to me about work
|
I'm up to my eyeballs in dirt - with work, with work...
|
