well i'm hiding my eyes from the morning sun |
|
and i keep on working till the work is all done |
|
but a voice in my head keeps ticking away |
|
as the sweat's hosed down from yet another day |
|
well he works hard |
|
and he lives hard |
|
and he breaks his back without nothing to gain |
|
while the boss man sits around and drinks champagne |
|
all day (you work and you work and you work and) |
|
in life, there's just one transition |
|
all day (you work and you work and you work and) |
|
in life, there's just one decision |
|
well i'm peeling the blisters off my working hand |
|
is that what it takes to make you understand? |
|
that it's something you read, not something you meant |
|
to be slaving away without a shred of integrity |
|
he worked hard |
|
and he lived hard |
|
and he broke his back without nothing to say |
|
while the man in control was just laughing away |
|
all day (you work and you work and you work and) |
|
in life, there's just one transition |
|
all day (you work and you work and you work and) |
|
in life, there's just one decision |
|
was it something you read? |
|
was it something you meant? |
|
was it something you said? |
|
or was it heaven sent? |
|
all day (you work and you work and you work and) |
|
in life, there's just one transition |
|
all day (you work and you work and you work and) |
|
in life, there's just one decision |
