Vaping On The Job Songtext
They say Michelle turned in her BFA for a CDL
And now she drives that box truck fifty hours a week
She don't paint anymore, she misses it for sure
But who's got the time?
And that taste she got of money sure was sweet
Oh, lately she's been wonderin'
Did she get real or did she just give up?
But she's not the type to whine
So she just follows those white lines and keeps her mouth shut
And now she drives that box truck fifty hours a week
She don't paint anymore, she misses it for sure
But who's got the time?
And that taste she got of money sure was sweet
Oh, lately she's been wonderin'
Did she get real or did she just give up?
But she's not the type to whine
So she just follows those white lines and keeps her mouth shut
But when no one is around
She sneaks a little puff and that's enough
(That's right)
She's vapin' on the job
To spice it up and cool it down
Forget her pain, forget her place
Forget this game, forget this race
Forget this town
Forget the nightmares in the news
Forget these old computer blues
Forget the dreams she used to dream that she forgot
Oh, forget the boss, she's vapin' on the job
While Michelle drives the truck
Danny rides a desk chair up in midtown
One of those odd jobs that ain't really odd at all
He takes his lunch alone
While the higher-ups play ping-pong in the background
He can't remember when he ever felt this small
'Cause the screenplay that he wrote
Ain't causin' the commotion that he hoped
Seems like every day's the same old joke
But Danny's found a special way to cope
When he sneaks out to the stairs
And puts that pen up to his lips and gives it a kiss
(And it sounds like this)
He's vapin' on the job
To spice it up and cool it down
Forget his pain, forget his place
Forget this game, forget this race
Forget this town
Forget the nightmares in the news
Forget these old computer blues
Forget the dreams he used to dream that he forgot
Oh, forget the boss, he's vapin' on the job
Oh, Danny meets Michelle
At a bar in Queens where Deena is the barkeep
She pours them both a water and a beer
"Oh, Deena, what a week it's been,"
Says Danny as Michelle draws on her napkin
Deena fakes a smile and pretends to care
'Cause her spirit's on the bottom shelf
And in her heart, she's carryin' a stone
Since the person that she thought she'd maybe
Could've loved turned out to be a ghost
So she steps out for some air
But Danny and Michelle know where she's goin'
(Where she's goin')
She's vapin' on the job
To spice it up and cool it down
Forget her pain, forget her place
Forget this game, forget this race
Forget this town
Forget the nightmares in the news
Forget these old computer blues
Forget the dreams she used to dream that she forgot
Oh, forget the boss, she's vapin' on the job
She sneaks a little puff and that's enough
(That's right)
She's vapin' on the job
To spice it up and cool it down
Forget her pain, forget her place
Forget this game, forget this race
Forget this town
Forget the nightmares in the news
Forget these old computer blues
Forget the dreams she used to dream that she forgot
Oh, forget the boss, she's vapin' on the job
While Michelle drives the truck
