I went to work last week
my boss gave me some grief
He said my job had to be
my life's priority
So I asked him "could you lay me off
I need my stamps to get E.I.
He told me I was fired
so I quit
Now it's a wake 'n bake weekday
I just lost my job
Mall rat baby left me
and my guitar to sob
boo hoo hoo hoo
No more flippin' them burgers
I am too incompetent
Yes my sixteen-year-old manager
gave me the slip
I told Roxanne on Friday night
down at the bar
She asked me if I could still
afford to drive my car
Words led to an argument
now she's left me all alone
With no one to take to the mall
and my money's all gone
chorus...
Now I'm all spaced out
not sure if I'll finish writing this
'Cause this wake 'n bake weekday
leaves my mind to drift
boo hoo hoo hoo
