Chad Meers - Closing Time Lyrics

Stood at this counter nearly 8 hours today
Too young for my back to hurt in this way
When the manager calls I got nothing to say
I'm thinking about closing time
Strip malls at night aint a glorious scene
Hawking cell phones and reading magazines
If I sell anymore it's the day shift for me
I'm thinking about closing time
Sometimes I wonder if there's something else for me
But the chances pass with the time
Day after day it's a far cry from glory
But for now it'll do just fine
It's the bonds of a job we can't seem to resist
We trade time for money and just work down the list
And daydream of a place that no longer exists
I'm thinking about closing time
Sometimes I think about cutting out early
And leaving the whole thing behind
I don't really know what I'd do when I got there
But I've got a place in my mind
That's just a pipe dream of that there's no doubt
I've got things to pay for and worry about
But it's fifteen more minutes and I'm clocking out
I'm thinking about closing time
I'm thinking about closing time
Ma'am did you find everything alright
