Tumble outta bed |
[00:11.29] |
And stumble to the kitchen |
[00:12.51] |
Pour myself a cup of ambition |
[00:14.81] |
Yawnin', stretchin', try to come to life |
[00:19.55] |
Jump in the shower |
[00:20.88] |
And the blood starts pumpin' |
[00:22.17] |
Out on the streets |
[00:23.33] |
The traffic starts jumpin' |
[00:24.47] |
And folks like me on the job from 9 to 5 |
[00:27.78] |
