i don t work here anymore

Good Charlotte

Growing up, I never dreamed of clocking in and clocking out
I feel like I m being paid to lose my mind
I m getting older, feeling colder
Like my youth is almost over
And all my dreams are fading faster all the time

All my life I ve waited
For a chance to chase this feeling

Don t tell me what to do, I don t wanna work for you
It don t pay enough, it ain t adding up
Yeah, life s too short
I ll never be like you, so keep your uniform
I don t make enough, I m not acting tough
I m just out the door, I don t work here anymore
Oh-oh, I don t work here anymore, oh-oh

Your blonde hair, those blue eyes
Were as crystal as the ocean
And I knew it, I could see you by my side
When you walked in, it was over
I felt sober for the first time
When you took my hand, my dreams were open wide

All my life I was praying
For a chance to have this feeling

Don t tell me what to do, I don t wanna work for you
It don t pay enough, it ain t adding up
Yeah, life s too short
I ll never be like you, so keep your uniform
I don t make enough, I m not acting tough
I m just out the door, I don t work here anymore
Oh-oh, I don t work here anymore, oh-oh

Cause I only ever dreamed about this
With every test, I tried my best not to fail
But they always make me doubt it
Not this time, this one s mine, I m not for sale

Don t tell me what to do, I don t wanna work for you
It don t pay enough, it ain t adding up
Yeah, life s too short
I ll never be like you, so keep your uniform
I don t make enough, I m not acting tough
I m just out the door, I don t work here anymore
Oh-oh, I don t work here anymore, oh-oh

I don t work here anymore, oh-oh
I don t work here anymore, oh-oh
