8 oclock get up get outta bed
I feel like a truck ran over my head
Another day of stress and sorrow
Skip breakfast, cause I gotta go
Aint got no time to take it slow
And I will do my hair tomorrow

I cant take it no more
Oh no no no
Is this what Im living for?

But my uncle john from jamaica
Keeps on calling every day
Just buy a ticket and take a
Summer holi - holiday

6 oclock my job is still not done
The life Im living aint no fun
Too many days of stress and sorrow
My boss just wont give me a break
And this is more than I can take
Think I will quit this job tomorrow
