Shirley’s Shift

[Verse] Early morn rise up tight Shirley's here another fight Customers they just won't quit Tired brains they throw a fit [Verse 2] Scan the items push them through Shirley sighs this ain't new 2 to 8 she's trapped again Counting hours 'til the end [Chorus] Oh Shirley she's tired of this mess Dreams of days free from stress Behind the counter she hides her frown Waiting for the sun to go down [Verse 3] Pipe organ plays a melody bright Mocking her with every bite Huff and puff stupid folks She can't stand these endless jokes [Verse 4] Coins and bills like a flood Wished she had a better bud Eyes on clock it moves so slow Hopes and dreams they overflow [Chorus] Oh Shirley she's tired of this mess Dreams of days free from stress Behind the counter she hides her frown Waiting for the sun to go down
