Honest Work

歌詞

As long as you give me my pay You'll get your moneys worth I'll be there 8 hours a day I won't hide and I won't shirk I got a way with a hammer and a nail A dovetail and a tongue and groove Put up a wall in half a day Guarantee it'll never move CHORUS Shouda li li li dum dum a day Honest work I'm gonna build a strong foundation Marble walls like Grand Central Station Not gonna feel any more frustration Do enough work for an entire nation Gonna get a chisel and an awl and a saw Carve my name out on your door A block and tackle and a spirit level Take your heart of glass and put on a bevel CHORUS repeat Got to build a strong foundation Strong enough to hold up a nation Strong enough to put your faith in The roof won't leak and the floor won't cave in Gonna get a lathe and a capstan press Take an old claw hammer to this mess Gonna knock down the walls of denial Wear 'em down with a pick and a file CHORUS repeat
