Working For The Man

Janet Devlin

Transposer:

Intro (Day and night working Night and day working All day long working 24/7 three sixty-five working) verse 1 Coffee cup watching the hands of the clock Holding me locked up waiting for the sun to rise Red Light caught between day and night Can someone help me win this fight against the mundane morning blues I’m tired of walking in these shoes Running in a rat race Always in the right place at the wrong time working for the man Living for the weekend Struggling to pretend this is all right working for the man It’s not working out for me Is it working out for you Working for the man (24/7 three sixty-five working) verse 2 Deadlines   Living on borrowed time Not enough hours to dream these dreams of mine They won’t even let me try High life but I ain’t livin’ at all I find myself trapped behind these four walls In the mundane morning blues I’m tired of walking in these shoes Running in a rat race Always in the right place at the wrong time working for the man Living for the weekend Struggling to pretend this is all right working for the man It’s not working out for me Is it working out for you Working for the man         Instrumental (each only one strum)                              Running in a rat race Always in the right place at the wrong time working for the man Living for the weekend Struggling to pretend this is all right working for the man It’s not working out for me Is it working out for you Working for the man Running in a rat race Always in the right place at the wrong time working for the man Living for the weekend Struggling to pretend this is all right working for the man It’s not working out for me Is it working out for you Working for the man Outro (Day and night working Night and day working All day long working 24/7 three sixty-five working)

Cette chanson évoque la routine épuisante du travail où l'on se sent coincé, constamment sous pression avec des horaires serrés et une vie qui semble se résumer à courir après le temps. Elle dépeint une lutte contre la monotonie quotidienne, avec ce sentiment de ne pas vivre vraiment, mais juste de survivre pour le week-end. La narratrice ressent une profonde lassitude face à cette réalité, se demandant si d'autres partagent ce désenchantement, alors qu'elle se sent piégée dans une spirale de labeur sans fin. La recherche de sens et de liberté est palpable, mais la réalité du quotidien semble peser lourd sur ses épaules.
