Working for the weak and the weekend
Sometimes feel you might go off the deep end
Losing sight of your own life
Are you climbing the ladder, or are you twisting the knife?
is there a light at the end of that telephone line?
Or is it a message saying "you've gotta work overtime"?
cause you will not ignore that phone
you will have to eat alone
and you'll say "it's alright" -
Or you will be staying late tonight
You work so hard just to get by
We want to make a difference but we only JUST survive
And sometimes you don't even know why,
But you try (and you try and you try and you try)
and you try and you try!
Another night another missed sunset
You walk home alone and the stars are all regrest.
And you will have to follow up
You had better give a fuck
and you'd better get it right -
Or you will be staying late tonight.
