[Verse]
              
Everything is 


bleak.
              
It’s the middl

         
e of the night

.
           
You’re all alo

ne and
              
the dummies mi

       
ght be right.
             
You feel like 

  
a jerk.
            
My music at wo

rk.
            
My music at wo

rk.

              
Avoid trends a

   
nd cliches.
              
Don’t try to b

        
e up to date.
             
And when the s

              
unlight hits t

         
he olive oil
             
   don’t hesit

     
ate.
              
The night’s so

           
 long it hurts
              
My music at wo


rk.


[Chorus]
              
In a symbol to

  
o far
              
or the anatomy

      
 of a stain;
              
to determine w

         
here you are,
              
in a sink full

     
 of Ganges, I’

d remain -
             
  No matter wh

       
at you heard
              
in my music at

  
 work.
             
My music at wo

rk.
             
My music at wo

       
rk.


[Verse 2]
              
I call it, ’Ol


ga Waits;
              
The cloud that

      
 entertains
          
the dim possib

ility of
            
showing some r

   
estraint.
    
The rain came 

down berserk.
            
My music at wo

rk.
            
My music at wo

rk.


[Chorus 2]
              
On a star beyo

       
nd the chart
              
or the dark si

              
de of a drop o

  
f rain.
              
determining wh

        
ere you are,
              
in a sink full

    
 of Ganges, I 

remain
             
   No matter w

        
hat you heard.
             
My music at wo

rk.
             
My music at wo

rk.
             
My music at wo

      
rk.

From the middl

Bound for bed

My music at wo
