Last Hour of the Last Day of Work

I can't help but think back to the
The advice that I got from my dad
He said, "Time goes by so fast
In the blink of an eye, so never close your eyes"
And I always wanted something
Something more than 50 hours
Every week, and a paid vacation
On the Jersey shoreline

And he said, "So when ambition
Turns into competition
I'll never be the better man"
(Whoa oh oh oh) so when ambition
Turns into competition
I'll never be the better man (yeah!)

I can't help but think back to the
To the time he said, "Life goes right by"
And told me never think twice
"You can't second guess how to live your life"
All these years have been way too short
To be spent on some factory floor like me
I never went back again
I never looked back again

And he said, "So when ambition
Turns into competition
I'll never be the better man"
(Whoa oh oh oh) so when ambition
Turns into competition
I'll never be the better man

"It's the last hour
Of the last day
Don't fall so far behind now
You'll be another nameless face"

He said, "So when ambition
Turns into competition
I'll never be the better man"
(Whoa oh oh oh) so when ambition
Turns into competition
I'll never be the better man

So when ambition
Turns into competition
I'll never be the better man
(Whoa oh oh oh) so when ambition
Turns into competition
I'll never be the better man
