"5 Days On (2 Days Off)"

Five days on and two days off
9 am already starin' at the clock
Five days on and two days off
It goes round and round and it never stops
(Never stops)
(Never stops)
(Never stops)
(Never stops)

You must think I'm a loser
You must think I'm a maniac
Well, I'm not here to amuse you
I'm just here to get paid
To get wages
Then I'm on my way

They got us five days on and two days off
Counting down the days until my head goes pop
They got us five days on and two days off
Round and round and it never stops

Well, are you working hard?
Or are you hardly working?
Well, I find it hard
With the bossman lurking
He's stood smirking
I'm still working here
(Never stops)

You must think that I'm crazy
Not much of a brainiac
But don't you dare call me lazy
I got a plan of attack
To enact so that I won't come back

They got you five days on and two days off
Counting down the days until your heart just stops
Five days on and two days off
Round and round and it never stops

Well, are you working hard?
Or are you hardly working?
Well, I find it hard
With the bossman lurking
He's stood smirking
I'm still working here

Well, I've been having some thoughts
And I've been doing some thinking
Well, you can cut out the drugs
And you can stop the drinking
But the one thing that'll dig your grave
Leave you standing in the rain
Is pressure building up inside your veins
Well, I'm sorry I've got no advice
See you when I'm done at five

Well, are you working hard?
Or are you hardly working?
Well, I find it hard
With the bossman lurking
He's stood smirking
I'm still working here
(Never stops)
(Never stops)
