8 o?clock get up get outta bed
I feel like a truck ran over my head
Another day of stress and sorrow
Skip breakfast, ?cause I gotta go
Ain?t got no time to take it slow
And I will do my hair tomorrow

I can?t take it no more
Oh no no no
Is this what I?m living for? 

But my uncle john from jamaica
Keeps on calling every day
Just buy a ticket and take a
Summer holi - holiday

6 o?clock my job is still not done
The life I?m living ain?t no fun
Too many days of stress and sorrow
My boss just won?t give me a break
And this is more than I can take
Think I will quit this job tomorrow
