"Record Shop" lyrics

"Record Shop"

I'm waking up at ten o'clock
The coffee just don't hit the spot
The holy grail and Camelot
Await for me at the next bus stop
I flip the sign my work's begun
It ain't work when it's so much fun
I really feel like the lucky one
I'm where I wanna be

Got my job at the record shop
I play the songs that I like a lot
My two girlfriends are a broom and mop
And they dance with me when the needle drops
I don't care what other people say
How late the stereo blasts away
I lock the doors and I sweep the floors
And I check the drawer, never ask for more

I think I found my destiny
Crate digging for some melodies
I'd like to say that you have good taste
But we all know that ain't true
I pick my favorites from the bunch
I eat calypso and jazz for lunch
So go ahead and pick a side
And I'll tell you who's on keys

Got my job at the record shop
I play the songs that I like a lot
My two girlfriends are a broom and mop
And they dance with me when the needle drops
I don't care what other people say
How late the stereo blasts away
I lock the doors and I sweep the floors
And I check the drawer, never ask for more

I love my job, you betcha
I gotta come clean
I'm just here for employee discounts
On new arrivals and magazines, oh

Closing time comes rapidly
The record covers smile back at me
I flip the sign and I hit the lights
It feels like leaving home
'Cause this little world's really all I know

I love my job at the record shop
I played the songs but they had to stop
My two girlfriends, they don't call a lot
And I walk home all alone
