Adi Kadussi - Workday

It’s five to eight and I’ll be late again
I put my high heels on and a coat
To keep me from the rain
What if i’ll stop, get some coffee
I might miss the bus
But at least I’ll have a sweet taste
To cure this workday morning sickness
The meeting started and I’m walking in
Head in a suit is speaking
I care ‘bout the clock ticking
Put on a smile and fix my dress
I just wanna go outside and smoke my cigarette
Day dreaming I am somewhere else
And if I could find some shade
I’ll be able to survive this day
And if I could lay my head
I’ll be able to survive this day
Inside this metropolis the bus stopped
And then I banged my head
As if I could finally get a break
Don't wanna work for someone lame enough to climb my back
When I ask for a raise replies that I can have a buck
I wanna be everything that I can be
So I got to break free from this patriarchy
What a shame this is the 21st century
And if I could find some shade
I’ll be able to survive this day
And if I could lay my head
I’ll be able to survive this day
Inside this metropolis the bus stopped
And then I banged my head
As if I could finally get a break
Sunday, Monday
One day I’ll be the boss
Hire me, fire me
You don't decide what I’m worth
Sunday, Monday
One day I’ll be the boss
Hire me, fire me
You don't decide what I’m worth
No...
See when I was a girl
They asked me what I wanna be when I grow up
They didn't say I need to be tough
I don’t wanna change I just wanna do what I believe in
Not looking up to you I’m looking at the glass ceiling
Not playing in your field for you I’m just a scarecrow
Why should I please
No apologies
No more skin left to grow
Guess you’ll never know
What it feels like for a girl
And if I could find some shade
I’ll be able to survive this day
And if I could lay my head
I’ll be able to survive this day
Inside this metropolis the bus stopped
And then I banged my head
As if I could finally get a break
And if I could find some shade
I’ll be able to survive this day
And if I could lay my head
I’ll be able to survive this day
Inside this metropolis the bus stopped
And then I banged my head
As if I could finally get a break
