POKEY LAFARGE
"Day After Day"

I got to have my coffee when I wake up in the morning
I got to have my tea when the sun goes down
Every page of my life, the same old story
Nine to five, day after day I can be found

[Chorus:]
Hangin' around that water cooler (workin' everyday)
Five o' clock can't come sooner (workin' my life away)
Waitin' for the evening to roll around (workin' everyday)
My shift is over, I'm highway bound day after day
I get no relief when my working day is done
Just to sit in rush hour man, you know that ain't no fun
I could be sailing off the coast of some tropical island
Leanin' in the shade of some big palm trees
I should be out chasin' girls or sitting at home learning violin
And doing all those other things I said I'd do eventually, instead I'm

[Chorus:]
I get no relief when my working day is done
Just to sit in rush hour man, you know that stuff just ain't no fun
I pray for no more water coolers, five o' clock to come much sooner
That some day, some night, sweet relief will come to me
Day after day
(Workin' every day)
(Workin' my life away)
(Workin' every day)
