The alarm rings and I wake up at eight Just in time to have a fat cat down on my back He's smiling though my life ain't that great It's surprising the things you do for money One day I'll be a boss of my own In a skyscraper, a tall blonde secretary Til then I'll have to suffer alone With you good, good people Ain't life rosy? Don't walk around like that It's alarming how you spend every day Being charming to a boss that's down on your back He's barking all these orders my way It's surprising that they never seem to worry All day I'm just surrounded alone With a pin stripes and a pink ties necessary I'm looking at the clock as it rolls Down again to the morning Ain't life rosy? Don't walk around like that Don't walk around like that Don't walk around like that Take two steps back One day I'll be a boss of my own In a skyscraper, a tall blonde secretary Til then I'll have to suffer alone With you good, good people Ain't life rosy? The alarm rings and I wake up at eight Just in time to have a fat cat down on my back He's smiling though my life ain't that great It's surprising the things you do for money
