Topic: Dead End Job
This was inspired by Easybeat's Stop Go Man and talking to a guy who was fixing a Van in a Courier depot. He was telling me how the people there were just throwing parcels around and not taking any care. I said thats what happens when you pay people the minimum wage, you get the minimum effort.
Dead End Job
[G] Didn’t do too well at school
[D] The teachers didn’t care
Spent [C] too much time being cool
and [G] chatting up girls there
Chorus:
[G] Got a dead end job for hardly any pay
[C] Boss don’t know who I am
[D] Do this, is what he’ll say
[G] Hanging on for end of day
[G]Don’t care if it’s done right
[D] I still will get my fee
[C] I’ll just blame someone else
[D] And say it wasn’t me
Chorus
[G] Never had a pay rise,
[C] Every day’s a grind
[D] The work can be so boring
[G] Don’t get any praise
Chorus
[G] I do the same thing every day
[D] Can hardly wait to go
[C] I’m on my feet all day
[G] Boss say’s I’m too slow
[G] Everything I do is wrong
[C] Boss says to take more care
[D] Looking forward to end of day
[G] To get me out of here
Chorus
[G] Been here for years
But no one cares
[D] If I stick around
[C] Guys like me aren’t hard to find
[G] There’s tons of us around
