I Just Work Here

It's not supposed to be like this
The rat race gotta cease
There's supposed to be some time to kill
There's supposed to be some peace
I got a wife and kids in town
And all their names I know
But I'm just here to pay their bills
And hold the status quo
How am I doing?
Don't ask me
I just work here can't you see
How am I doing?
Oh so-so
I just work here
I don't know
It's not supposed to be like this
It's supposed to be some fun
The work it takes to make things work
Is all I do is run
I lost my watch a week ago
And still can't find the time
To buy myself a new one
Like that old time peace of mind
How am I doing?
Don't ask me
I just work here can't you see
How am I doing?
Oh so-so
I just work here
I don't know
Somewhere there's a summer
Somewhere things are calm
Somewhere there's a way to
Circumnavigate your palm
Somewhere there's a winter
Somewhere falling snow
Somewhere there's a way away from
All those things you know
It's not supposed to be like this
It's all too much to take
It's way too complicating now
Is all I got to say
The ice cream man is down the block
The bell sounds like a dream
He's just outside the parking lot
But miles away it seems
How am I doing?
Don't ask me
I just work here can't you see
How am I doing?
Oh so-so
I just work here
I don't know
