《Work Song(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Work Song - Nellie McKay

[00:00:20] Deliver the paper deliver the porn

[00:00:22] Deliver the baker deliver the morn

[00:00:24] A quiverin' jibberin' shiverin' mass

[00:00:26] Of sunshine and good times that I have to pass

[00:00:28] On the way to my job on the way to my work

[00:00:30] On the way to that slobberin' hoverin' jerk

[00:00:31] Who's my boss today

[00:00:32] Who's my boss to stay

[00:00:33] Who's my supervisor when I'm in my grave

[00:00:35] A slave on the run still under the gun

[00:00:37] Of Attila the Hun with a cinnamon bun

[00:00:39] I don't know son was there somethin' I missed

[00:00:41] I don't think Fritz Lang was a fantasist

[00:00:43] Metropolis exists is this

[00:00:45] If you listen close you can hear the piss

[00:00:47] [chorus

[00:01:03] Every day's another loss

[00:01:04] Need the pay so please the boss

[00:01:06] Through the sludge they mingle by the mile

[00:01:10] Every worker looks ahead

[00:01:11] Ah the kiddies must be fed

[00:01:14] So they trudge along in single file

[00:01:20] Joo ming boohaaooo

[00:01:52] And you turn and you toil

[00:01:54] And you burn and you boil

[00:01:55] In the tourniquet coil

[00:01:56] Of the white folks' soil

[00:01:57] Spoilin' with a malaise worse than disses or dope

[00:01:58] Wakin' up in a haze

[00:01:59] With your wishes and hopes

[00:02:00] And your poor little dreams

[00:02:01] All wrapped up in burlap

[00:02:02] That you carry around

[00:02:03] For a sniff or a snack

[00:02:05] Or a taste in your haste

[00:02:06] To get right back on track

[00:02:07] Outta whack with the pack

[00:02:08] But acquiring the knack

[00:02:09] Of ignoring the rustle

[00:02:10] That quietly seethes

[00:02:11] The hustle the buy-it

[00:02:11] The air that you breathe

[00:02:28] Joo ming boohaaooo
