Stuck in a rut working nine to five

punch the clock proving he's a alive

he's a working man getting nowhere



he's got a wife, he's got a cat

god only knows where they're at

he's a lonely man, frustrated



tired of life, working five days a week

the weekend is his only treat

then his money's gone, it's monday



living his life gets him down

once a year vacation comes around

two weeks gone, time flies



man was cursed from his birth

it's a common truth yeah

guess it was always meant to be

the curse he wants reversed
