Nice to meet you. I am joe.
Nine to five in a cubicle.
Morning coffee with bagel
Midday coffee with donut
Midnight coffee when stuck in a rut
Coffee, coffee, coffee
Never ever free.
One day I shall make a cut out of king kong
Stick it on the empire state.
Tomorrow I will push the train forward.
Save everyone from a track fault.
They’ll say, ” Is that a bird? Is that a plane?”
I’ll say, “No, it’s just joe.”
One day I’ll say no to this $1.50 crap
Get coffee from the ritz, be free from this trap.
Tomorrow I’ll be at the bank.
Cashing this month’s cheque.
Spend it all on the lottery and maybe get a penny back.
Should I win, I’ll be on the news.
They’ll say, “Who’s that lucky twat? He’s all out of wack!”
I’ll say, “No, it’s just joe’”
Oh shit, it’s 1. I gotta be back.
There’s a report due tomorrow
And it’s barely done.
There’s the subway to dread
And the briefcase to drag.
Guess Ann and Lois Lane will have to wait.
Till another day when I’m finally free.
