i don't like the work but true i need the money
my life is like a joke but to me is isn't funny
peolpe all around, telling me what to do
and all i want to do is stay at home with you
Time after time i say to myself
working all my life isn't good for my health
get old, get tired, get put on the shelf
i do all the work, someone else gets all the wealth
wish i was on an island in the sun
where i woouldn't have to worry how to get things done
I don't like the work but true i need the money
my life is like a joke but to me is isn't funny
peolpe all around, telling me what to do
and all i want to do is stay at home with you
Day after day becomes more of a grind
bills pile up, moneys harder to find
trying to get ahead money's harder to find
if i don't give it up i'm gonna lose my mind
wish i was on an island in the sun
where i wouldn't have to worry how to get things done
I don't like the work but true i need the money
my life is like a joke but to me is isn't funny
peolpe all around, telling me what to do
and all i want to do is stay at home with you
