I used to wake when I wanted
Go to school when I felt like a laugh
But I got thrown out
So now I no doubt
Get in a? for my ass?

I tried to sing for my supper
Then I got hungry and found me a job
Now every morning
It's like I'm whored out
I get so bored I can shout

Hey boss man, fuck that noise, straight outta Illinois
Hey boss man, fuck that noise

I'm just a working class asshole
Slaving away till my brain's turning numb
And for my labors there's nothing but hatred
I wait for the weekend to come

I'm just a working class asshole
So I pretend to be deaf, blind and dumb
And for my labors there's nothing but hatred
I wait for the weekend to come

I know that I should be grateful
To have a job when so many do not
But unemployment
Equals enjoyment now
And I'm a lazy damn sod

Hey boss man, fuck that noise, straight outta Illinois
Hey boss man, fuck that noise

Hey boss man

I'm just a working class asshole
Slaving away till my brain's turning numb
And for my labors there's nothing but hatred
I wait for the weekend to come

I'm just a working class asshole
Just a working class asshole
[x2]
I'm just a working class asshole
A working class asshole
I'm just a working class asshole
Just a working class asshole
