Paycheck Lyrics by House Ghost

Yikes

2019

Honey where is my briefcase i gotta go to work
(no no no no no no)
Pick up the phone, how may i help you, does it hurt
(no no no no no no)
No time for my kids or my wife in this environment
(waiting on retirement)
Lost my mind over time i gotta find it
( i really gotta find it)

I don't wanna work for a paycheck
You don't wanna work for a paycheck
Let's take over the world if you say yes
Let's take over the world if you say yes
I don't wanna work for a paycheck
You don't wanna work for a paycheck
Let's take over the world if you say yes
Let's take over the world if you say yes
Take over the world take over the world

Take over the world
Take over the world
Take over the world
Take over the world
Take over the world
Take over the world
Take over the world

5 o'clock i'm clocking out, bout to hit the parking lot
Put the cd in, mama said knock you out
Working for the man, i really wanna knock him out
Text message from my boss, block it out block it out
I really hate my job but i'm rolling with the punches
???? give me sake now
I'd rather be intoxicated than be accoladed
Employee of the year woo! i made it
The corporate ladder is a stairway to heaven
Retirement retirement signal all my brethren
Another day inside a cubical, it's not usual to be a slave today
At least i'm getting paid every two weeks
Been on vacation for two weeks

I've been at my job now for 10 years
(yeah)
Everyday i'm thinking god i'm still here
(yeah)
After 20 years i get laid off
(yeah)
Man hard work really pays off
(yeah)

Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump off
Now i'm at a bridge bout to jump
