Now that your picture's in the paper

being rhythmically admired

and you can have anyone

that you never desire

all you gotta tell me now

is why, why, why,why



Welcome to the workin'week

Oh I know it don't thrill you

I hope it don't kill you

Welcome to the workin'week

You gotta do it til you're through it

so you better get to it



All of your family had to kill to survive

and they're still waitin'

for their big day to arrive

But if they knew how I felt

they'd burry me alive



I hear you sayin'

Hey the city is alright

when you only read about it in books

Spend all your money gettin'so convinced

that you never even bother to look

Sometimes I wonder if we're livin'

in the same land

Why d'you wanna be my friend

when I feel like a juggler

running out of hands?



Welcome to the workin' week

oh, welcome to the working week
