lyrics

Going to work it ain’t much fun
I wanna come before I’ve begun
Sitting there bored I always moan
Thinking to myself why can’t I go home

Get up every morning as early as I can
Leg it out the house to catch the van
Sitting half asleep in the back seat
Knowing that the weekend won’t be long

Cos it’s better than joining the queue
Cos it’s better than being like you
One thing I don’t wanna do
Is end up nothing like you…

Every week is the same old game
Get up got to work come home again
Get up got to work come home again
Oh what shitty life I lead…

Gotta get out of this routine
A bit of excitement is what I need
Gotta get out of this routine
And sort out something unforeseen

Cos it’s better than joining the queue
Cos it’s better than being like you
One thing I don’t wanna do
Is end up nothing like you…

Going to work it ain’t much fun
I wanna come before I’ve begun
Sitting there bored I always moan
Thinking to myself why can’t I go home

Get up every morning as early as I can
Leg it out the house to catch the van
Sitting half asleep in the back seat
Knowing that the weekend won’t be long

Cos it’s better than joining the queue
Cos it’s better than being like you
One thing I don’t wanna do
Is end up nothing like you…
