Danny’s Working Like a Dog Lyrics by The Clockworks

Exit Strategy

0

[Verse 1]
Danny's working like a dog
Can't help feeling unfulfilled
GOGO Café's not the place to be at 23
Instagram's a gallery of
Happy people looking well
The only thrills that he can get
Are killing him or so it seems
[Chorus]
Keep talking about leaving
Still be here in October
Comfort is deceiving
It's better safe than sober
Danny's working like a dog
[Verse 2]
Look, here comes another passion
He's making all the lists and all the charts
Another brain wave comes crashing
The fact of fashion's it never lasts
He's got the photo with the cap and the gown
But he's feeling none the wiser now
Us friends don't let it get him down
There's no dreams to dream up when there's drink to drink up and
[Chorus]
Keep talking about leaving
Still be here in October
Comfort is deceiving
It's better safe than sober
Keep talking about leaving
Still be here in October
Comfort is deceiving
Yeah, it's better safe than sober
Danny's working like a dog
[Verse 3]
Now I've been working like a dog
But can't get a penny ahead
Kicking back at failure
Now Australia is the plan
Danny's packed his bags, and I say
"Hey, why don't we stay instead?
The dreams we had as children
Don't have to fade away"
Danny says, "You think that if we
Met now, we would still be friends?"
As he leaves, he turns to me
"You'll get out in the end"
[Outro]
As long as it's beating
We're not fully beaten
Woah
I can't find the right words to–
La-da-da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da
Uh-oh
Uh-oh-oh
La-da-da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da
Uh-oh-ahh
La-da-da-da-da
It's so hard to care for problems elsewhere
When you can't mend the problems at home
