lyrics

never gonna reach that tower
keeping in my office hours
sweating like a beach bleached mother lying about the clock
and other men could do this better
academic and blue collar
never gonna say I bother sighing about to rock n roll
(paying rent)
slow purpose in my blood
(makin ends meet)
every morning I wake up
(stayin in bed)
no words can beat the stuff
I think about enough
whether weather's bringing mud or rain
