United State Of Electronica - Night Shift lyrics

My day starts when your head hits the pillow Gotta get my shot of double café amaretto Kiss my boo goodnight, and then I'm out the door My dream last night, my only friend on the metro Clock in, let the night begin Let's see what the city dragged in A gangster, a hustler, a bum with some crack Last week, dude on weed, on too much smack On the nightshift, I go up the escalator On the nightshift, I go down the elevator Cause I'm the only one that's here tonight My boss called around three, wanted to know the kronkite My job requires me to mace out of hate But it's up to me, so I will lyrically a**a**inate Those that step, and those that test, The best damned security in the northwest. On the nightshift (one more day, let's get away) Call up the cops because I'm one of them I'll be, i guess not, i'm just makin' fun of them Wanted to be a 5-0 like my brother, but I failed the piss test Now i'm a disgrace to my mother And pleasure in the job, and perfection in the work Then why's my uniform a second-hand t-shirt? But hope floats, and that's how it goes My 401k planâ€"yo, it blows! On the nightshift, i go up the escalator On the nightshift, one more time down the elevator I'm the only one that's here tonight My boss called around three, wanted to know the kronkite My job requires me to mace out of hate But it's up to me, so i will lyrically a**a**inate Those that step, and those that boast The best damned security on the west coast. On the nightshift (one more day, let's get away, what's it gonna take?) (trust your heart, it's not gonna break) (love's gonna take us outta here) That was fresh. My whole crew is fresh. You know what you could do to help me out? I want everybodyâ€"put your hands in the air. (one more day, let's get away, what's it gonna take?) I've worked a lot of places All over this world. But this, the northwest This is definitely where it's at So baby, you know i'm comin' home in about ten minutes, right? With a little thing i like, goodnight.
