[] They
get up every mornx with the alarm clock's warnx, take the
8:15 into the city
There's a whistle up above and people push and people shove and the
girls, who are tryin' to look pretty. And if your
train's on time you can get to work by nine and
start to sleep and talk to get your pay If you
ever get annoyed, look at me, I'm self-employed,
I love to work at nothing all day. And I've been
takin' care of business, every day taking care of business, every way
TCOB, it's all mine TCOB, & workin' overtime, workout
[guitar solo for one chorus]
[] There's work
easy as fishin', you can be a musician if
you could make sounds loud and mellow Get a
second hand guitar and chances are you can go far if you
get in with the right bunch of fellows People
see you having fun just a- lying in the sun, and
tell them that you like it this way. It's the
work that we avoid and we're all self-employed We
love to work at nothin' all day. And we've been
TCOB every day TCOB every way
TCOB it's all mine TCOB & workin' overtime FUNKY!!!
