lyrics

V.1:
I'm goin home, to soak in the bath, while I'm still On The Clock;
They can pay me, the rest of the day, to sit here and take stock...
In Casual work, this is my perk -- this luxury’s all i've got;
From the top of the tree, they won't see me, nor care for what I
Have Not...
(BRIDGE)
I'm not trying, to even get ahead,
I wonder why, I should even get out of bed....

V.2:
You have to ask, at the end of the week, what's earnt and what is lost?...
When all you find is a tired mind, and yet another hidden cost;

(BRIDGE)
No I'm not trying, to even get ahead,
I wonder why, I should even get out of bed.... these days…

(CHORUS)
The fruits of my labour, have been torn....
the fruits of my labour, are now forgone...[x2]

V.3:
Well what use are Laws, when the bottom-line calls, and the dole queue isn’t much worse;
But no-one ignores, when the hammer it falls, and the Bosses must live with this curse…

Now I'm not trying, to even get ahead,
I wonder why, I should even get out of bed.... these days…...
(CHORUS)…………. [x2]

I'm goin home, and don't even ask, while I'm still On The Clock;
I'm goin home, and don't even ask, why I'm still On The Clock…

about

Pat Bruce Melbourne, Australia

"2-Hat" Pat Bruce is one of Footscray's lesser-known Alternative/Roots troubadours.
His heartfelt song-craft conveys a raw mix of Celtic-Folk, tinged with muddy country-roots, all drenched with a grungy punk spirit.

As an intermittent stalwart of the inner-Melbourne music scene over the past decade, some say he is finally maturing like a good wine.

Decide for yourself.
