lyrics
I’m feeling jaded
I’m suffocated
Working for the man has got me
Doubting I can make it
I’m feeling hollow
This shit’s too much to swallow
If I had a million bucks
I’d be a world away tomorrow
They try to rule you
Think they can fool you
They bait you with a buck
And then do anything to screw you
But I don’t worry
Instead I’ll hurry
I’ll make my break at five
And drive off in a blaze of glory
Tonight we leave it all behind
We’ve earned our chance to lose our minds
No more waiting for these summer nights
2 AM and there is no end in sight
We’ve been waiting for these summer nights
There’s no sleep ‘til we start to see the light
TGI Friday
What else can I say?
In a little while
I will be free to do it my way
One more hour
I feel empowered
Someone tell me why
Such precious little time is ours
It’s ten to five
Almost quitting time
The minutes passing by
I’ll make it if it kills me
Just two more to go
And I’m a one man show
You don’t even know
How this moment does fulfill me
Now the summer’s gone
And we’re all still here
You gotta raise your glass
And toast another year
I’m suffocated
Working for the man has got me
Doubting I can make it
I’m feeling hollow
This shit’s too much to swallow
If I had a million bucks
I’d be a world away tomorrow
They try to rule you
Think they can fool you
They bait you with a buck
And then do anything to screw you
But I don’t worry
Instead I’ll hurry
I’ll make my break at five
And drive off in a blaze of glory
Tonight we leave it all behind
We’ve earned our chance to lose our minds
No more waiting for these summer nights
2 AM and there is no end in sight
We’ve been waiting for these summer nights
There’s no sleep ‘til we start to see the light
TGI Friday
What else can I say?
In a little while
I will be free to do it my way
One more hour
I feel empowered
Someone tell me why
Such precious little time is ours
It’s ten to five
Almost quitting time
The minutes passing by
I’ll make it if it kills me
Just two more to go
And I’m a one man show
You don’t even know
How this moment does fulfill me
Now the summer’s gone
And we’re all still here
You gotta raise your glass
And toast another year
