So why do I need a job
Why do I need a job
Feel so free, I got nowhere to be
Oh, why so I need a job
I once worked for an old bastard
Who always pushed me to work faster
He made fun of me 'cause my hair was green
He tried to stick his hands into my jeans
My girlfriend is a stripper in Abilene
She likes me to stay home and watch TV
She pays for my food, she likes to be rude
She undresses her friends for me
So why do I need a job
Why do I need a job
It's so cool, I've nothing to do
Oh, why so I need a job
I don't have a clue what I wanna do
Maybe I could invent something cool
Or I could do time for committing a crime
Then sue for a million or two
I traded my car for a van
Filled it with gas, guitars and this band
They pay us with beer, we stole all this gear
So why don't y'all give us a hand
Oh, why do I need a job
Why do I need a job
The hours are great, I'm never late
So why so I need a job
Why do I need a job
Why do I need a job
We praise you loud, there's never a crowd
Oh, why so I need a job
