Boss's Paradise

[Verse] Cold hard cash I count all day For my boss who’s gone away On vacation to a distant land I count his pennies he lays in the sand [Verse 2] I work all day just to float There's a leak in my little rowboat My boss drives his yacht across the seas Where water's warm with a scented breeze [Chorus] Counting coins till my fingers hurt Dreaming life in a Hawaiian shirt He's sipping cocktails on a deck Me I'm stuck behind this desk [Bridge] His life could be a magazine My life’s a daily routine Wonder if he will ever see What that paradise means to me [Chorus] Counting coins till my fingers hurt Dreaming life in a Hawaiian shirt He's sipping cocktails on a deck Me I'm stuck behind this desk [Verse] Every penny clicks and clacks Life of leisure’s what I lack But I'll keep counting keep my head Still hope for better days ahead
