All In A Day's Work lyrics

Well, it's a beautiful day 

for a certain arrangement.

There's wheels in the water 

and tires on the pavement.

Don't tell me the party's through.

The lights are coming on at two,

most of the time.

And if the bartenders come out to play,

I'm gonna try to keep 'em out of the way.

I'm crossing the line 

that leads to a good time.

There's only so many chords 

that haven't been played yet.

And the check's in the mail 

but we haven't been paid yet.

(Paid yet, paid yet, paid yet)

The chauffeur's picking up our tab,

it's looking like we'll need a cab.

We're counting our dimes

and if the ploy won't come into play,

were gonna save it for a rainy day

when we're blurring the line

between us and the good times.

It's all in a day's work

(All in the way you work with the changes)

(Work with the changes)

It's all in a day's work

(All in the way you take to the strangeness)

Then we'll be back in the morning 

and brush off the pay dirt.

Derange it by evening 

and call it a day's work.

(Day's work, day's work, day's work)

And every word that we parlay

gets forgotten the next day.

It's better that way.

But if the boys don't come in to play,

you'll have to save them for a rainy day.

When we're writing the lines 

and making up good times.

It's all in a day's work

(All in the way you work with the changes)

(work with the changes)

It's all in a day's work

(All in the way you take to the strangeness)

(Take to the strangeness)

It's all in a day's work

(All in the way you work with the changes)

(Work with the changes)

It's all in a day's work

(All in the way you...)

(All in the way you take to the strangeness)

(Take to the strangeness)
