Working Man

Working from dusk to dawn
Going home worn out 
All he wants to do is go to bed and sleep
But he has other things to do 
Take a shower and eat
Watch a little television 
Read the newspaper 
Then he might go to bed
Sleep endlessly 
Hear the alarm go off 
Time to get up 
Getting ready to go back to work 
Working from dusk to dawn 
…again…
