from Won't Work 4 Food!,
released May 21, 2013
All day long, I’ve been waiting right here
For some nice soul to bring me a meal
Or offer me a job that I can do
But no one comes, ‘cause they think I’m a bum.
I lost my job a year ago
I was about to retire, but they let me go
So now I’m here waiting for someone
But no one comes, ‘cause they think I’m a bum.
That fellow over there’s never worked a single day
He just begs and bums, oh the lies he’ll say
I hope and pray for some work or food
But no one comes, ‘cause they think I’m like that bum.
Then someone gives him food but he turns up his nose He looks at his dog, the burger he throws
What I wouldn’t do for a little food.
But no one comes, ‘cause they think I’m like that bum.
Yes no one comes, ‘cause they think I’m like that bum.
All day long, I’ve been waiting right here
For some nice soul to bring me a meal
Or offer me a job that I can do
But no one comes, ‘cause they think I’m a bum.
But no one comes, ‘cause they think I’m like that bum.
Yes nobody comes, ‘cause they think I’m like that bum.
All day long, I’ve been waiting right here
For some nice soul to bring me a meal
Or offer me a job that I can do
But no one comes, ‘cause they think I’m a bum.

Yes nobody comes, ‘cause they think I’m like that bum.
