LyricsHey I Don't Work Here

Saturday morning

comes and goes

without too much

on my mind

Except maybe lunch

I walk down to the shops

just to move

Feel a bit rough

from last night

I may have drunk

a bit too much

A lady in the supermarket

approaches way too fast

And her eyes are intense

and she spits a little bit

when she asks

Where do you keep

the pasta

I dunno aisle three

Well can you get it for me

I just want a Gatorade

But she rolls her eyes

so I kind of lose it

Hey I don't work here

And if I did

I would not sell you shit

Hey I don't work here

But maybe I should

That way I could hide

all of the things

you want from you

Hey I don't work here

But if I did

Would I be wearing

a dirty white singlet

Ya fool

Hey I don't work here

But maybe I should

Silly me

I've had the pasta

all along

Fuck you

O-woh-oh

O-woh-oh

O-woh-oh

I don't work here

O-woh-oh

O-woh-oh

O-woh-oh

I don't work here

Saturday arvo

comes and goes

and I'm feeling

pretty great

I made a middle-aged woman

cry today

Walking on the hot sand

at Bondi Beach

I take a rest

in the lifeguard tower shade

My foresight readies me

for melee

A man runs

from the surf

and approaches way

too fast

With a bluebottle

across his chest

he shakes me

as he asks

You gotta save my kid

I can't really swim

What kind of lifeguard

are you then

I'm just here

to take a nap

But he rolls his eyes

so I kind of snap

Hey I don't work here

And if I did

I would not save

your kid

Hey I don't work here

But maybe I should

That way I could help

relieve that nasty sting

for you

Hey I don't work here

But if I did

Would I make a race car out

of sand then fall asleep

Hey I don't work here

But maybe I should

Maybe I should

Maybe I should

Should do what

save my son

No get a job

What about my son

he's drowning

Your son's fine

he just swims weird

and you shouldn't

hold that against him

Oh my God thank you

I can't begin to

He's gone

Saturday night

comes and goes

without too much

on my mind

Just kicking

a ball down the street

I give it too much juice

and it flies over the fence

of my local NASA compound

Just bear with me

Guards are all passed out

It seems there's been

a planned attack

The alarm is blaring loud

but I'm the only one intact

I try to phone for help

but unfortunately

There's an alien

transmitting itself

to NASA screens specifically

Give us ya planet

Okay I don't

let me find someone alright

just relax

Give us ya planet

I I I said okay

We're under attack

Give us ya planet

Ok I don't have

the authority to do that

I just came

to get my ball

But it's been a long day

so I speak for us all

Ladies and gentlemen

we are reporting live

across the globe

Alarming news

as extraterrestrial life

has issued a statement

of war to planet Earth

The alien transmission technology

has left all but one individual

incapacitated within

the transmission receiving point

a NASA space compound

located in Sydney Australia

The time has come

and humankind can do

nothing more than

pray and watch on

as the diplomat

for planet Earth responds

with what we can only imagine

as an articulate plea

for peace and mercy

Hey I don't work here

And if I did

I would not surrender shit

Hey I don't work here

But maybe I should

That way I could take

a trip to Mars

and strangle you

Hey I don't work here

But if I did

Do you think

the president of Earth

has a fucking mullet

Hey I don't work here

But maybe I should

That way I could put

my planetary fist in you

That way I could teach your kid

to drown in front of you

That way I could hide

all of the linguini from you
