you go to work every weekday, every week to get paid
so you can pay your bills, and you can pay your way
you just plod along, every day is the same
you're young and you know you're not gonna stay this way
yeah you
you've got so much time

got your own place everything is going fine
got your own place everything is going fine
got your own place everything is going fine
got your own place everything is going fine
cos you
have got youth on your side

another month in your place you can just afford to keep
another later shift, you're tired, so just go to sleep
another night wasted, it's okay, you've got tomorrow
another bill through the door, more money you must borrow
though you
know things will get better in time

waiting for promotions, things will be fine
waiting for promotions, things will be fine
waiting for promotions, things will be fine
waiting for promotions, things will be fine
cos you
you're working all the time

still go to work every weekday, had a raise so it's okay
can finally afford to save and take a little break
had your break, it was great, back to work Monday
deep down in your heart you don't wanna stay this way
you!
you're running out of time

you're okay with how things are, really it's fine
you're okay with how things are, really it's fine
you're okay with how things are, really it's fine
you're okay with how things are, really it's fine
cos you
you're in denial, it's the story of your life

you're like a chicken in a fucking battery farm
never meant that much, never did any harm
you persist to exist just to feed the bigger guy
do as they say obey, you eat, you shit, you die
all you do
is eat, shit, and die

eat, shit, die, it's the story of your life
eat, shit, die, story of your life
you eat, you shit, you die, it's the story of your life
you eat, you shit, you die, it's the story of your life
eat shit die, it's the story of your life
eat shit die, it's the story of your life
you eat, you shit, you die, it's the story of your life
you eat, you shit, you die, it's the story of your life
it's the story of your life
the story of your life's you eat, you shit, and you fucking die
(and I'm not doing that bit in time)

bye bye
