Working
It’s hard to have to work for a living
Unless you like what the job is giving
Most people have to earn their bread
Or else it would be the dole instead
If I didn’t work it would be great
I wouldn’t worry about getting up late
No traffic jams on the way to get there
I wouldn’t have to worry or care
But it’s not for me not yet anyway
I will still have to go into work today
It would be so nice to say get lost
But I really have to think of the cost
The hustle and bustle of the working day
I do all this for my monthly pay
At the end of the month when I get paid
Then I’m always glad that I stayed
Working hard all day from nine till five
It’s not easy but at least I can survive
In the winter it would be nice to retire
To stay home all day in front of the fire
