Drinkin' on the Job
There's an engineer who's working on an Amtrak line
His life is just as tough as yours and it's harder than mine
Sometimes when all the pressure gets a bit too much
There's just one thing that he can do and still pee in a cup
Everybody's tired, everybody's spent
Trying to figure out where their money went
Everybody's tired, going half insane
They're just trying to kill the pain
They're drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
It's whatever it takes to get you by
Some get drink and some get high
Some do twelve steps and crave caffeine
While they're skimming off the till down at the Dairy Queen
Everybody's tired, everybody's spent
Trying to figure out where their money went
Everybody's tired, going half insane
They're just trying to kill the pain
They're drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Everybody's tired, everybody's spent
Trying to figure out what their mama meant
Everybody's tired, going half insane
They're just trying to kill the pain
They're drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
I got a written reprimand in my employee file
See, I was busted at the dumpster with a beer and a smile
Send me down to see the big boss in the corridors of power
But he was already gone to happy hour
Everybody's tired, everybody's spent
Trying to figure out where their money went
Everybody's tired, going half insane
We're just trying to kill the pain
We're drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Still drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
His life is just as tough as yours and it's harder than mine
Sometimes when all the pressure gets a bit too much
There's just one thing that he can do and still pee in a cup
Everybody's tired, everybody's spent
Trying to figure out where their money went
Everybody's tired, going half insane
They're just trying to kill the pain
They're drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
It's whatever it takes to get you by
Some get drink and some get high
Some do twelve steps and crave caffeine
While they're skimming off the till down at the Dairy Queen
Everybody's tired, everybody's spent
Trying to figure out where their money went
Everybody's tired, going half insane
They're just trying to kill the pain
They're drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Everybody's tired, everybody's spent
Trying to figure out what their mama meant
Everybody's tired, going half insane
They're just trying to kill the pain
They're drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
I got a written reprimand in my employee file
See, I was busted at the dumpster with a beer and a smile
Send me down to see the big boss in the corridors of power
But he was already gone to happy hour
Everybody's tired, everybody's spent
Trying to figure out where their money went
Everybody's tired, going half insane
We're just trying to kill the pain
We're drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
Still drinking on the job, na na na na na
Drinking on the job, na na na na na
