[Intro] [clean electric guitar stabs, tight drum kit, melodic bass enters] [Verse 1] [soulful male vocals] Sat down to write a song Thought about the day how it passed right by It didn't take too long Till my mind went flying into the sky Far too much work here [brass hits] Can't do it all in time Wearing down the gear with too much on my mind [Chorus] Take this job and you can shove it Moving on to what my heart calls for The labor that makes me love it Just did a circle on the floor [drum fill] [Verse 2] Because my soul brings me back here To this work, to this dream, do you care? Can't quit the job when I'm the boss I'd fire myself but I just won't leave The world is too precious What I protect at all costs [guitar solo begins] [Verse 3] Morning coffee with the news Not on TV but soon no views Friends and fam with the brand new song I just love hearing what's going on [bass slides] [Bridge] Cars rush fast, someone take out the trash Make the numbers go burr, living the daily hash Real life happening all day long Bit by bit I try to write a song [Chorus] Take this job and you can shove it Moving on to what my heart calls for The labor that makes me love it Just did a circle on the floor [falsetto vocal run] [Outro] An evening soar, a stream on the airwaves Good sir, good lady, everyone we know waves Two, three hours, how long did it last? Flying through time, it goes so fast Can I just trust it all? But your words aren't missed The care and the connection are heard in the midst Take this job and you can shove it Moving on to what my heart calls for The labor that makes me love it Just did a circle on the floor [brass section swell, final drum hit]
