This F*****g Job

Workin' this job is a kick in the pants

Workin' this job is like a knife in the back

It ain't gettin' me further than the dump I live in

It ain't gettin' me further than the next paycheck

Workin' this job is like lightin' two fuses

Workin' this job is runnin' out of excuses

It's like a dead end when a road map is useless

Until I'm dead and there's nothin' to show for my uses

Nobody told me it'd be easy

Or for that matter it'd be so hard

But it's the livin' and the learnin'

It makes the difference it makes it all worthwhile

Makes it all worthwhile

Workin' this job there's nothin' left but to hate it

I won't get as far as my daddy made it

It ain't gettin' me farther for all my strivin'

In the dead end I live on or the piece of shit I'm drivin'

Nobody told me it'd be easy

(Na-Na-Na)

Or for that matter it'd be so hard

But it's the livin' and the learnin'

It makes the difference it makes it all worthwhile

Makes it all worthwhile

Sometimes I dream that I had aimed my life in different ways

But there was nothin' to show me a way to get me outta this place

So I just did what my daddy did before me

Only to find the only door I found was closed to me

Workin' this job I thought it sucked when I had it

Now it is gone and I'm learnin' what bad is

I'm tryin' to hang on to the worst of places

But a family can't live on these fast food wages

Nobody told me it'd be easy

Or for that matter it'd be so hard

But it's the livin' and the learnin'

It makes the difference it makes it all worthwhile

Makes it all worthwhile
