I can't shake this feeling

At the end o' each day

That I keep on working hard

But all I do is get payed

Though I keep believing

There's a light up ahead

'cause it's only getting darker

And I could say in my bed.

It's a fight

It takes so long

But I've learned to hold my own.

So I stand

And I wait in line

With a heavy head

And this bottle of wine

And I watch

As they steal my time

I stand and I wait in line

I stand and I wait in line.

I walk home in the shadows

I carry me cage

And I hope they notice

What I brought to the stage.

'cause its a fight

And it takes so long

But I've learned to hold my own.

So I stand

And I wait in line

With a heavy head

And this bottle of wine

And I watch

As they steal my time

I stand and I wait in line

I stand and I wait in line.

Ooh whenever it gets inside

It gets so hard to hide

Whenever it gets inside

Ooh I know you'll turn out right

Giving it all my life

I know you'll turn out right.

And I stand

And I wait in line

With a heavy head

And this bottle of wine

And I vow

As they steal my time

I know one day I'll get mine

And I stand here and wait in line.

I stand and I wait in line

I stand and I wait in line.
