From the recording An Ordinary Urge (1984) and It's The Renaissance (1983)
Lyrics
I'm back to work
Got new shoes and a brand new stick
I'm starting over
Got two lives and a nervous tic
Chorus
Hard work is harder for me
My work record is alarming
Is there something in these genes
That keeps me from the work routine
I've been waiting
Just this morning 8 to 5
Haven't got much done cuz
Before noon I'm barely alive
Chorus
Doctors, lawyers auto mechanics
The painter, the preacher the railroad worker
They all know that work routine
They get up each morning
It's hard to believe
Chorus
Hard Work, terrifies me
Good luck never finds me
Big bucks never finds me
True love paralyzed me
