Working Man’s Ballet Songtext
von Don't Get Lemon

I want to lay down and close my eyes at night
My legs tired and sore
The pain in me that can be no more
When a night of glory washes onto my shore
Give us this chance, this chance you′ll break
Give me my freedom before I'm locked in a cage
Was I too free-flowing, inventive, and beautiful?
Unable to be contained in your idea of dutiful
Numberless shadows of summer sing in full throated ease
But despite the quality I think you must have missed me
You must have missed me


I hope you enjoyed your night at the working man′s ballet
It's the only way I might dance through the workday, dance through the workday
I hope you enjoyed your night at the working man's ballet
It′s the only way I might dance through the workday, dance through the workday

Run away I′m someone to keep an eye on
Hear the song that my feet sing
Shout it out let my praise ring
I'm an undeniable phenomenon
As the brilliance flashes on
I′ll leave them all with my swan song

I hope you enjoyed your night at the working man's ballet
It′s the only way I might dance through the workday, dance through the workday
I hope you enjoyed your night at the working man's ballet
It′s the only way I might dance through the workday, dance through the workday

Da da da da do do do
