Familiar Buzz

Every morning at the same time
You hear that familiar buzz or chime
You get up early everyday
Worn out and tired, but you do it anyway
Punch the clock because bills are due
You work hard, worry and lose sleep too

Get to work and try to get eight
The day goes slow, you just can't wait
The boss doesn't know that you're alive
No matter how hard you work
Or how hard you strive

Your back hurts and pain is in your head
By the end of the day it will seem like you're dead
The day is over, you've done your best
Run some errands, then home to rest
And just when you think you've reached the end
You hear that familiar buzz and do it all over again
