Lyrics

Run fast from my day job

Running fast from the way it was

Jump quick to a pay check

Running back to the strip club

I'm never going back, never going back

No, you can't make me

Never going back, never going back (Yeah)

They never take me

I've paid enough of petty dues

I've had enough of shitty news

I've had a thing for dirty shoes since I was ten

Love dirty men alike

Ooh

Better day than yesterday

Ooh

I just take it day by day

Ooh, oh, oh

Never hearing what they say

Ooh, ooh

I just do it my way

All I got is these broken clocks

I ain't got no time just, burning daylight

Still love and it's still love, and it's still love

It's still love, still love, still love (Still love)

It's still love, and it's still love, nothing but love for you (Nothing but)

Nothing but love, nothing but love (Nothing but)

All that I've got, pieces and pages

Talking a lot, sorry, I'm faded

Think I forgot, you love me

You love me, you love me

Got a shift at 10AM

Gotta dip at 10PM

Gotta get that cash

Won't get past the lunch break

I ain't had a smoke break

In about two days, don't break

Been about three years since I dated you

Why you still talking 'bout me like we together?

I moved on for the better

You moved on to whoever

I was down for whatever and then some

You gon' make me late to work again

Ooh

Better day than yesterday

Ooh

I just take it day by day

Ooh, oh, oh

Never hearing what they say

Ooh, ooh

I just do it my way

All I got is these broken clocks

I ain't got no time just, burning daylight

Still love and it's still love, and it's still love

It's still love, still love, still love

It's still love, and it's still love, nothing but love for you

Nothing but love, nothing but love

I don't eat, can't sleep past 9AM

Heartbeat make me feel young again

Can't beat 'em, just join the party

I don't wanna, don't need nobody

All that I've got, pieces and pages

Talking a lot, sorry, I'm faded

Think I forgot, you love me

You love me, you love me

You love me

You love me

You love me
