Lyrics
Working myself to the bone I’m past 23
Yeah I’m working to the bone
And what’s the point of it
Yeah I’m working myself to the bone
And it ain’t free yeah
See the only thing I ever learned
Is what I don’t wanna be
And this minimum wage is really starting to show my age
I won't sit in my place
I won't sit down here and wait
Taking up all of my time
To get some money to spend on me
Said I’m so lucky that it’s only me
I’ve not got to worry about kids and family
Yeah I’m working myself to the bone
And it ain’t free here
See the only thing I ever learned
Is what I don’t wanna be
And this minimum wage is really starting to show my age
I won't sit in my place
I won't sit down here and wait
