lyrics

You’re taught when you were young you had to get a job just to survive
They never ever teach you the best feeling is to feel alive
They’ll tell you that you have to go to work become another boring corporate jerk
But being you is the best feeling that you could ever feel
Experience, relationships and taking risks on what is real
Don’t become a slave to your job you’ll be on your deathbed thinking you were robbed

So quit your job and run away you’ll see your friends another day
Fuck the rest don’t be stressed free yourself and you’ll be blessed
Happiness is all we need abandon your financial greed
It’s better just to be yourself and have a reason to fucking bleed
You weren’t born to pay your bills, sit around until you die
This bittersweet symphony is a gigantic lie
Don’t get fired fucking quit and prove that you give a shit
About yourself about your life and now your future’s looking bright

Fuck your boss and those in charge they are human just like you
The only difference is that they will tell you what to do
They shouldn’t dictate your every move and you shouldn’t feel like you’ve got something to prove
You fucking work the same old job every day week after week
And when you open up your mouth the words you want you do not speak
Everybody is afraid to fail so you’d rather check the company email

Sitting at your desk and dreaming
About getting high and breathing
Fresh air outdoors and the flowers
Counting minutes counting hours
Every second that you spend
Keep on waiting till the end
I got regrets work is not one
Did not give in, I just have fun
Be who ever you desire
See the world binge watch the wire
Enjoy your life while it’s here
Quit your job, you’re in the clear

So quit your job and run away you’ll see your friends another day
Fuck the rest don’t be stressed free yourself and you’ll be blessed
Happiness is all we need abandon your financial greed
It’s better just to be yourself and have a reason to fucking bleed
You weren’t born to pay your bills, sit around until you die
This bittersweet symphony is a gigantic lie
Don’t get fired fucking quit and prove that you give a shit
About yourself about your life and now your future’s looking bright
Work has always been a bore time to run out the door
Find yourself or someone and don’t forget to have fun

Don’t forget to have some fun
