Lyrics

Well I oughta be an engineer
Building bridges and shiny roads
But I’m out here on the streets
Doing good to keep a roof of my own
Ain’t what it’s s’posed to be
Making dimes on a shoestring
Yes, I oughta be an engineer
Living good out on my own
Living like a scientist
On a school day in ’05
Little experiments
Rocket boys learning to fly
Try to test the hypotheses
Of paying bills and trying to eat
Well I’m living like a scientist
Learning how I’ll get on fine
There’s no end in sight
To a state of piece of mind
No anchor for a ship out on the sea
Working towards the doing right
Blinking in and out at night
Well this oughta be one of those things I should get right
There’s no end in sight
To a state of piece of mind
No anchor for a ship out on the sea
Working towards the doing right
Blinking in and out at night
Well this oughta be one of those things I should get right
Well this oughta be one of those things I should get right
