Back to Work - The Skoidats

Can’t believe I’m here

Can’t believe I’m awake

10 o’clock in the morning

How much can I take?

I’m going to walk away

With a frown and a limp

I’m going to try real hard

Not to abandon ship

Got no time for sleep

My muscles are sore

Barely remember the feeling

Of being a company whore

Time and time again

I’m confused and I’m late

Try to deal with these feelings

These feelings that I hate

Black and blue, hands and knees

Early mornings and dirty jeans

Back to work again

Slap in the face

Back to work again

I feel so out of place

Got to make my money

It’s a blue collar school

Try to rise above

But I’m beat down just like a fool

It’s a game I have to play

Tell you the truth I’d rather walk away

Look inside to try and find

Blue collar pride that I’ve left far behind

No one should tell me how to think

My time in the free world

Has pushed me to the brink of self destruction

Can’t believe I’m here

Don’t believe I’m awake

It’s 5 o’clock in the morning

But it’s just a belly ache

But I’ll be back again

Tomorrow’s another day

I better get my head on straight

Or I’ll never receive my pay

Tried and true

Head that smarts

Drunken late nights

And broken hearts

Back to work again

Shut up and deal

Back to work again

Not a dream it’s for real

Going to make my money

Be a blue collar fool

Got to eat my supper

Not dream and drool anymore!
