lyrics
Verse 1
Turning off the tube, born to sing the blues,
Waitress at the bar, she wants to be a star,
Get a good degree, well hey now look at me,
Chorus
Sign me up…for mediocrity,
Sign me up…for mediocrity,
Verse 2
Worked down to the bone, by things you don’t condone,
Slaving at a desk, the man takes half your cheque,
The clocks at ten and three, you want to be set free,
Chorus
Sign me up x4
Bridge
Ain’t no reason for it baby, it’s all the same,
You go your way, in the pouring rain,
Ain’t no reason for it baby, call a spade,
Stop beating round the bushes cause you know that,
Time is brief, Time’s a thief.
Repeat Verse 1
Sign me up x4
