So I´m gonna make the best
The best of it Yeah-eh-eh
Baby get over and give us a kiss
(huh?)
Wah-ah-ah-ah

[Verse 1]
I've gotta push myself
But I take a break (huh?)
Now and then
I like a good advice
But there´s some things (huh?)
I don't wanna change
I know I'm on my way
My dreams are big (huh?)
You'll see some day, babe
I'm gonna take us places
But for now
I'm in the pay my rent business

[Verse 2]
I take the train (train)
To the work (to the work)
And then back to train
And then back to train
I see the sun (sun)
Go up (go up)
And down again
And down again
I've got a couple of friends
And a quiet life
And it's all I need (huh?)
Well I know what I want and
They can't sell no dream to me
Wah-ah-ah-ah oh

[Chorus]
I know I gotta work today
Oh yes Sir
Wah-ah-ah-ah oh

Wah-ah-ah-ah oh
Baby get over and give us a kiss
Wah-ah-ah-ah

[Verse 3]
I take the train to work
Then back to train (huh?)
And back again
I see the sun go up
The sun go down (huh?)
Before I fall asleep
I've got a couple of friends
A quiet life (huh?)
That's all I need
As soon as you think
You've got life figured out you're back
Back to square one again

[Chorus]
I know I gotta work today
Oh yes Sir
Wah-ah-ah-ah oh
But baby inside

[Bridge]
Live for work (huh?) (Live for work)
Or work for life (huh?) (Or work for life)
Save for later (huh?) (Save for later)
Or start tonight (huh?) (Or start tonight)
Give us just a kiss before I go (Huh?)
Baby, (huh?) you´re my life
Just so you know
