about

Job Done is a track I used to display my storytelling skills I picked up from listening to Slick Rick. The idea of this song is to display a typical day going to work at a job that you don’t enjoy but have to do to pay the bills. Using my own experiences in the workplace I take you from waking up out of bed to coming back home after a long days graft
with some humour and harsh truths.

lyrics

Trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done
I Been trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done
I Been trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done
I Been trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done
I Been trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done
I Been trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done

The alarm clock snatches your dreams away from you
Repetitive ringing's a reality reminder
You see the construction workers laying down the tarmac 
As you wind the blinds up,
Premeditated paracetamol on the night stand
Cos you're aware of them using the digger at 6AM, proper wind up
You smell the scent and hear the sizzle of the fry up
Your girl got up early to cook, long time in a while
You suffer from Clinomania
That’s an excessive desire to stay in bed but your required
To get ready for work on the route to the routine
Getting dressed stressed this uniform suit don’t suit me
Found the left, lost the right, where could the other shoe be?
Oh, that's right, it was left outside from last night
Cos you trod in dog shit on the way home from work
Which is an indication how this day could turn out

Trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done
I Been trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done
I Been trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done
I Been trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done
I Been…

You're 2 minutes late and your boss is being a prick today
So, he deducts 15 minutes off your lunch break
So now there’s no time to go to bank and sort the gas bill
Feel to slap him and rob all the cash tills
But breaks over you better stop day dreaming 
The clock-in card's a reality reminder
You’ve got to stub out your half-smoked cigarette
No doubt a passing homeless man will pick it up and get it lit
That's when you compare your situation to his
He’s cold while we're warm drinking coffees in the office
But we still feel hard done to, the AC is not fixed
And Brenda's by the water cooler talking bare shit like…

I go to the toilet to avoid the gibberish
The loos don’t flush it just takes the piss
There's no wet floor sign so I suddenly slip
I’m looking at the mop thinking about kicking the bucket

Trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done
I Been trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done
I Been trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done
I Been trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done

Finally going home but the bus arrived 4 minutes early
And the next one's in about half an hour
So now your sat at the stop checking all of your pockets
For the all-day saver ticket, must have lost it
Not to mention it started raining
The old man also waiting is now complaining
In common British fashion to start a conversation
But you're so fed up you just nod at him and stare
On the bus now head down returning journey
Get off at your stop walk home feeling ruff
Avoid the same dog shit that’s still not cleaned up
But the diggers aren’t here I guess the tarmac's done 
Finally home and when the door's opened...
The smell of food makes you pause for a moment
Cos even though this life's not quite perfect
To come home to her makes it all worth it

Been trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done
I Been trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done
I Been trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done get the job done
I Been trying my whole life to get the job done
Get the job done
