lyrics

Where I work, the most boring work you can do
Repetition, the most boring work you can do
I'm thinking all the time about everything
It fucks with your mind, it's like a prison.

See this is like a lost dreams thing
That's what I'm thinking when I'm in here
Ten hours is a long time doing this
I'm gonna get the hell out of here.

I wanna get out of here if I can.

It's bad enough you got problems
Everybody's got shit on their minds
This is job, it's so boring, you start to obsess, man
Money isn't worth that much to me.
