High Life

working nine to five

feeling more dead than alive

hey come on, feel the beat of lifetime-jive

everyday it´s the same

that´s how life goes it´s way

and one day I´ll pay

I need money to live

work is the thing that I give

work all day until my body is stiff

everything will be fine

I reach the end of the line

weekend will come – it´s high life

High Life (3 times)

Head is aching – what a night

party was endless to daylight

all were happy the future was bright so bright

I could not defend

the devil in my head

call to drink alcohol

slowly life comes back

I feel the devils attack

there´s so much remembrance I still lack

through the year there are

so much nights I can´t

remember all – that´s high life

Monday I feel dead

devil´s still in my head

sleep I need but must go to work

think stay home this day

sleep a while – so I lay

in my bed on Monday

telephone´s ring

boss is there crying

telling him I am ill – must stay home

boss gets angry

I´m still weary

You are fired – he says
