Scissor Sisters - Night Work lyrics
[Scissor Sisters - Night Work lyrics]
When I was a young boy I
Pretended I had a job
My Daddy sat pretty while my
Mama married into the mob
I dreamed one day I'd be livin'
Off the system for free
But dreams come true
Honey welcome to my reality
And I sleep all day and
Wake myself in the shadows
(Time to get up, gotta get up)
Gotta catch that train by midnight for the
Night work gotta do the night work
Punch that clock and break all the numbers
Night work gotta do the night work
Weekday 9 to 5 shift is over
I didn't have a penny
No, I couldn't cut a check with a blade
I used to have the shakes
But now they're good at getting me played
I sleep all day but I break
My back in the moonlight
(never enough, it's never enough)
Gotta cash that check by midnight for the
Night work gotta do the night work
Punch that clock and break all the numbers
Night work gotta do the night work
Weekday 9 to 5 shift is over
Night work gotta do the night work
Punch that clock and break all the numbers
Night work gotta do the night work
Weekday 9 to 5 shift is over
And when the whistle blows
And your body can't take it no more
You gotta keep on movin', remember
This is what you asked for
Na na na na na na na na na-night work
Na na na na na na-night work night work
Gotta do the night work
Night work gotta do the night work
Weekday 9 to 5 shift is over
Pretended I had a job
My Daddy sat pretty while my
Mama married into the mob
I dreamed one day I'd be livin'
Off the system for free
But dreams come true
Honey welcome to my reality
And I sleep all day and
Wake myself in the shadows
(Time to get up, gotta get up)
Gotta catch that train by midnight for the
Night work gotta do the night work
Punch that clock and break all the numbers
Night work gotta do the night work
Weekday 9 to 5 shift is over
I didn't have a penny
No, I couldn't cut a check with a blade
I used to have the shakes
But now they're good at getting me played
I sleep all day but I break
My back in the moonlight
(never enough, it's never enough)
Gotta cash that check by midnight for the
Night work gotta do the night work
Punch that clock and break all the numbers
Night work gotta do the night work
Weekday 9 to 5 shift is over
Night work gotta do the night work
Punch that clock and break all the numbers
Night work gotta do the night work
Weekday 9 to 5 shift is over
And when the whistle blows
And your body can't take it no more
You gotta keep on movin', remember
This is what you asked for
Na na na na na na na na na-night work
Na na na na na na-night work night work
Gotta do the night work
Night work gotta do the night work
Weekday 9 to 5 shift is over
