Long day, short life
|
Wake up the kids, kiss your wife
|
Watch it go by so quick
|
No time to call in sick
|
|
Grow up fast and off to work
|
Surprised we don't all go berserk
|
Sweat it out in the day's sun
|
Time to reflect, you barely get none
|
|
Long day, short life
|
Wake up the kids, kiss your wife
|
Watch it all go by so quick
|
No time to call in sick
|
|
Out of it all, What'd you get?
|
A little time to hedge your bet
|
Drop dead in a ball of sweat
|
Work your ass to stay out of debt
|
|
What do you have to show?
|
Goes so quick yet the day is slow
|
Kids grow up and out the door
|
Stare at the wall and down at the floor
|
|
Long day, short life
|
Wake up the kids, kiss your wife
|
Were you free? Were you a slave?
|
Rush, rush, rush, to the grave
|
|
Now you get old and grey
|
Nobody listens to what you say
|
It seems as if you're just in the way
|
Find yourself counting the days
|
|
Long day short life...
|
Hope at least you still have a wife
|
Finally you've got nothing to prove...
|
Hope it doesn't hurt just to move
|
|
Long day short life
|
Wake up the kids, kiss your wife
|
Were you free? You were a slave
|
Rush, rush, rush, to the grave
|
