The Working Dad
I'm losing sleep on my pillow's cold side
And I find my living room's my fortress
"Blah, blah", you speak
And I nod to listen
But donate my brainwaves to television
Cuz cable's got my attention
And I absorb the bullshit in it
And my suit and tie appearance
Is my disguise to justify things
Take it off and I'm a fucking broken bet
They've got me working like a dog to pay my debt
They've got me working like a chump for benefits
Get up, commute, I'm an optimist
Punch out, close up
Suck in my gut, I'm blessed
I kneel down, I'm shoulder deep in shit
No good pension can teach me to swim
Store front, with the fucking mannequins
Stand up, good posture, an advertisement
I'm losing sleep
Because my existence has left me a lazy, brain dead figure
And I find my living room's my fortress
"Blah, blah", you speak
And I nod to listen
But donate my brainwaves to television
Cuz cable's got my attention
And I absorb the bullshit in it
And my suit and tie appearance
Is my disguise to justify things
Take it off and I'm a fucking broken bet
They've got me working like a dog to pay my debt
They've got me working like a chump for benefits
Get up, commute, I'm an optimist
Punch out, close up
Suck in my gut, I'm blessed
I kneel down, I'm shoulder deep in shit
No good pension can teach me to swim
Store front, with the fucking mannequins
Stand up, good posture, an advertisement
I'm losing sleep
Because my existence has left me a lazy, brain dead figure
