(after almost 4 years i'm back in the workforce. nice to be around peoples again... money ain't great, but it ain't bad)

got a job today
a little work comin' my way
not much ta' say
all work & no play...
ain't my way
part-time
just a little rhyme
to match my rhythm
enhance my livin'
just a convinience store
nuthin' more
but, not a bore
meet new people
don't need no church steeple
hours are strange
my life has to re-arrange
hope i don't derange
from doin' work
one perk
i won't go postal
down here on the shores coastal
it's funny
not much money
lots of new faces
all different races

yup,
got a job today
and that's ok
not much ta' say
just a little work
comin' my way
i say with a smirk
all work & no play...
just ain't my way
