Minimum Wage
Heavy head heavy cough
Out of bed you're often late
To the work that you're pretty sure you hate
To the car where a parking ticket waits
There to take all your cash back to the state
Take a note from the city kid in debt
Pretty broke overworked and out of breath
Only thing he could do to be fair to you
Is swear to be there to take good good care of you
Oh but it's a slippery slope
Inch by inch to the end of your rope
Oo for a quick review
So we can put you on the payroll
Do you smoke do you drink have you visited Russia
How is your English
Verify your age
What's your name were you born in Australia
Can you see color
Living on minimum wage
Feeling low 'cause you are and they towed away your car
Now you're slow won't be going very far
Who's to know
Might belong right where you are
Doubt it though 'cause you ain't no movie star
Take a note from the pretty girl who came
From a place with an unfamiliar name
She would say whether lightbulb or candle lit
It's not what you got but the way that you handle it
Oh but it's a slippery slope
Inch by inch to the end of your rope
Oo for a quick review
So we can put you on the payroll
Do you read can you write what's your favorite distraction
Fake an emotion
Act it out on stage
Pick a card and swallow your resumé
When can you start today
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Do you smoke do you drink have you visited Russia
How is your English
Verify your age
What's your name were you born in Australia
Can you see color
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
Living on minimum wage
