Lyrics
WORK SUCKS
VERSE 1 I got this fuzzy logic running in my headbone
I feel my whole life has been sitting in this room
Seven days a week I sit at my computer,
Waiting for the sound of the 5 O'clock hooter
CHORUS Work Sucks. That is my mission statement.
Work Sucks. No more working on Saturdays.
Work Sucks. You can?t get blood out of this stone baby.
Work Sucks. I?m doing it on my own.
VERSE 2 Rather make a dollar playing my guitar,
don?t want your money or your company car.
sometimes my brain feels like fizzy coca cola,
I couldn't care less about directors and the shareholders.
CHORUS Work Sucks. That is my mission statement.
Work Sucks. No more working on Saturdays.
Work Sucks. You can?t get blood out of this stone baby.
Work Sucks. I?m doing it on my own.
VERSE 3 Five dollars every hour in the burning hot Sun,
Nobody?s smiling and no one's having any fun.
Well I?m not working in your capitalist factory here
I?m gonna take a Sicky that lasts the whole year.
VERSE 4 Mr President I do not feel so guilty,
it?s not me that makes the poor man poorer.
I?m working in the garden and lying in the shade.
Mr President I think I?ve got it made.
CHORUS Work Sucks. That is my mission statement.
Work Sucks. No more working on Saturdays.
Work Sucks. You can?t get blood out of this stone baby.
Work Sucks. I?m doing it on my own.
CHORUS OUTRO Work Sucks. I know the Customer is always right
Work Sucks. You can stick your machines where the sun don't shine
Work Sucks. I'm gonna take a long holiday
Work Sucks. Tell the boss what you want.
