Quit The Day Job Lyrics

And that comes under the heading

Terrific start for the one job on Teesside

I just wanna quit the day job

Find out what real life's made of

Wanna do all the things that I want

And answer to no one

I refuse to waste my life

On pointless shite till the day I die

Wake up early to be told you're free

By the millionaire presenters on your TV

Our plight, they're paid to defend

Everyone's depressed yet still we pretend

How much further must we descend

Until we take up arms for eternal weekend

I just wanna quit the day job

Find out what real life's made of

Wanna do all the things that I want

And answer to no one

No, your email does not find me well

It's people like you who make life hell

I'll add you to my pile of tomorrow's problems

That I've no intention of ever solving

Who was the cunt with the big idea

To build society so austere

Chase the dream of the work you think

By which time you're too tired to do anything

I just wanna quit the day job

Find out what real life's made of

Wanna do all the things that I want

And answer to no one

We've got free will, or so they say

But the alarm clock must be obeyed

Scrimp and save for an overpriced holiday

Spend all week wishing it was Saturday

Just no way from going insane

When it's all work cos you can't afford to play

All I ask for is a life I don't hate

Only job I'll ever love is Joseph-Desire

I just wanna quit the day job

Find out what real life's made of

Wanna do all the things that I want

And answer to no one
