BENCHSCRAPER - SHIFT DRINK Lyrics

I wake up every morning
To a soda and fernet
I wish that every morning
I didnt wake up nearly dead

Now we're closing down the kitchen
I need to fix my head
Well whiskey and a PBR
The cycle starts again

Pay me enough so where I work I can eat
Pay me enough so I can live down the street
Pay me enough so I can have my own dreams
If you pay me enough you can keep the f*ckin shift drink

I started smoking cigarettes
To get a rest or two
Six minutes thirty seconds
Sucking down a camel blue

Sitting in an alley
By a dumpster on a crate
Smoking years of life away
To get a f*cking break

Pay me enough so where I work I can eat
Pay me enough so I can live down the street
Pay me enough so I can have my own dreams
If you pay me enough you can keep the f*ckin shift drink

When I walk away from work
It's no one's business what I do
If I blow my check on booze
I won't be buying it from you

You say that we're a family
I guess that must be true
Cause every family I've ever known
Had chemical abuse

Pay me enough so where I work I can eat
Pay me enough so I can live down the street
Pay me enough so I can have my own dreams
If you pay me enough you can keep the f*ckin shift drink

You would use my dependence
To abuse and keep from paying me
I refuse to be dependent
I refuse to give a f*ckin cent back

You would use my dependance
To abuse and keep from paying me
I refuse to be dependent
I refuse to give a f*cking cent back
