Working for Living......!
expecting, waiting but its coming slow.
winding its way along hills high and low.
its engine is slow.
the waiting is so
hard to bear i'l just go
mad if i stay here just waiting some more
desiring it all but really wanting nothing,
fussing and messing but doing no accomplishing,
twisting it turning it watching and looking.
waiting and working but its just not coming!
what is the point of this whole rigmarole?
we stay here for a few years and then we are bones,
and in that time why cant we live life and go,
on in peace to the other side and to evermore?
instead we have this whole tedious process.
u wake up u work till ur lives just a workplace,
u sell ur soul and ur dignity to Trade.
oh what a monster these humans hav made!
Somedays won't end ever and somedays pass on by,
I'll be working here forever, at least until I die.
Dammed if you do, dammed if you don't
I'm supposed to get a raise week, you know damn well I won't.

I'm taking what they giving 'cause I'm working for a livin'.
.
Hey I'm not complaining 'cause I really need the work
Hitting up my buddy's got me feeling like a jerk
Hundred dollar car note, two hundred rent.
I get a check on Friday, but it's all ready spent.
.
Bus boy, bartender, ladies of the night
Grease monkey, ex-junky, winner of the fight
Walking on the streets its really all the same
selling souls, rock n' roll, any other day

Workin' for a livin', livin' and workin'
I'm taking what they giving 'cause I'm working for a livin'.
Workin' for a livin', livin' and workin'
