the alarm goes off

it's 6 a.m.

yet another day of work begins

as you get in your car

you drive and wonder "just when will it all end?"

punch in punch out

day in day out

when will you face the fact that you had certain dreams not long ago

but you're suddenly off track?



[Chorus]

over worked

underpaid

same old shit

do you run your life

or does your job run you?



your parents worked their asses off to put you in a better place

but any place you're going is a dead end road

filled with heartaches, headaches, backbreaking labor

and a fire burning under your skin

never let them take your spirit away

always remember that today is your day



[Repeat chorus]
