0Shrugging your shoulders in your old grey coat, read all the letters that you never wrote. You’re feeling tired ,there’s no antidote, just watching the days go by. Got no money and no firm plans, you gotta know it’s in your hands, nobody else can understand just watching the days go by….Spend your time like it make no sense, why you sitting there on the fence, can there be no recompense, just watching the days go by. Hear your mama say, whatcha do, seems all she does is talk at you. It’s your life, but you can’t choose watching the days go by. Get a job boy, get a job boy, get a job boy , get a job. Get a job boy, get a job boy , get a job boy, get a job. ...you don’t listen, Cause you don’t know……..yeah …. how many times I told you to pick them things off the floor, how many times I told you ,you need to get a job, how many times I told you I work my fingers to the bone for you, how many times ?........You know your mama only means the best, but you can talk and get it off your chest, you know how much she loves you and the rest, just watching the days go by. Hanging on the corner with all your friends,
wasting the time like it never ends, you gotta know it don’t come round again, when you watching the days go by...get a job boy, watching the days go by. Make a life boy,
watching the days go by, get a job, get a life, get a life, get a love, get a job, watching the days go by. (Shi 2016)
