Regular Job

You were added to the human toll in May of '59
Number three son in a regimented family of nine
Count your blocks and keep your place in line

And get a regular job, find a regular wife
Have a regular day, in your everyday life

You were enrolled in parochial school in September '63
Yes, I estimate we can count on him to amount to something fine
But salt and pepper loners never could quite fit in
What's wrong with you? You're falling way behind

To get a regular job, find a usual wife
Have a uniform day in your work-a-day life

Don't rock the boat, repeat after me
Don't rock the boat
Don't make ripples on the water

(You can make you join and run the race
Even make you win, but they can never make you happy about it)

You submitted to Safeco in June of '81
Ample fringe benefits, calculated retirement plan
Keep up with the... go grab your piece of (grab it fast)
I punch in in the morning, I punch out at night
I've found my job I've got my place this time

I've found a regular job, found a regular wife
I have a regular day, in my everyday life

Don't rock the boat, repeat after me
Don't rock the boat, don't make ripples on the water
