Myself
|
I am driving
|
I am late for work
|
Spilling coffee down my whitest shirt
|
While I'm flossing and I'm changing lanes
|
Oh Yeah
|
|
Now I'm driving
|
Through the parking lot
|
Doing eighty, hey what the heck why not
|
Watch it lady, Cuz you're in my spot
|
Once again, It's early to work
|
And here's a surprise, I got a
|
McMuffin for just 99 cents today
|
I think they ran a special
|
|
[CHORUS:]
|
I can't stand still Can I get a witness
|
Can you hear me Anybody, Anybody
|
I think I am running just to catch myself
|
|
Maybe someday I could fly away
|
Go to Key Largo or Montego Bay
|
Sport my Speedo, maybe grab a tan
|
DREAM VACATION, WILD ELATION
|
Now I'm running
|
Straight into my boss
|
And he's angry, Oh and he calls me Ross
|
Which is funny, cause that ain't my name
|
|
And that's lame
|
I'm still running
|
Running very late, For a meeting
|
Wait, that was yesterday
|
Guess I'm early for the one next week, Oh how sweet
|
I get on the ladder, I corporately climb
|
I wave at my life as it passes me by everyday
|
My name's not Ross!
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
Life in my cubicle is discreet, Life in my cubicle is neat
|
I've got some pictures of my friends
|
Some sharpened pencils...where's my pen
|
Ten O'clock I'm in a meeting
|
Paper cut I think I'm bleeding
|
Check my hair it's still receding, Hey what a life
|
Break for lunch, there's nothing better
|
Run outside and don my sweater
|
Like Fred Rogers let's be neighbors
|
I've lost my mind
|
I'm over worked, and underpaid, and non appreciated
|
|
It's just a perk of being of being middle class and educated
|
One... spinning circles in my chair
|
Two...win a game of solitaire
|
Three... And I ponder where my stapler's gone
|
Four O'clock and I stare at the door,
|
And I stare at my watch, Then I stare at the door
|
I stand by my desk like I'm going to war
|
There's just one thing I'll be needing
|
Grab my paycheck as I'm leaving
|
Oh oh oh oh oh oh ohhhhhhh
|
Five O'clock it's time to go
|
There's crowds to fight and time to blow
|
It's talking fast on my cell phone
|
Hey, watch out that's reckless driving!
|
Five O'clock
|
|
It's time to hit the couch and watch TV
|
Set the clock and go to sleep
|
It's 8 a.m. on Monday morning
|
Again and again and again and again and again
|
Driving around, no where to go
|
And so I hang with my lady,
|
Oh, and chill with my bros
|
It's okay, in my Cabriolet
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
When I meet God, I will have a question
|
I just forgot the question
|
I think I am running just to catch myself
|
Oh oh oh
|
Oh oh oh
|
