Well, pick up your feet, we've got a deadline to meet.

I'm gonna see you make it on time.

I wanna see everybody from behind.

Cause you're working for the man.

So I'm picking 'em up and I'm laying 'em down.

I believe he's gonna work me into the ground.

I oughta kill him, but it wouldn't be right.

Cause I'm working for the man.

Every time her daddy's down the line.

And everything is gonna be fine.

So I slave all day without much pay.

But I just biding my time.

'Cause the company and the daughter you see, they're both gonna be all mine.
