There was time when I would
Go walkin' backwards round the world
If you said you're mine
And I'd run blindfold down the king's road in monday morning
If you just for once arrived on time
But you turned into another liar
And you came on like a new messiah
So before you say what you desire
I'm tellin' you now
(Chorus)
I quit! I quit!
Cos lovin' you's a job I don't need
Ain't gonna go to work no more
I quit! I quit!
This situation's vacant for me
Ain't gonna go to work no more..(2x)
Ain't gonna go to work
I've got my hands dirty
While you rolled cigarettes
With one eye on that time
I'd tried my hardest I've been conscientious
But I'm takin' back that heart of mine
You can't roll me round your tongue no more baby
It's to clear up your emotional debris
And if I'm fallin' overboard please don't save me
Cos I'm tellin' you now
(Chorus)
It's too late to say you're sorry
You're just like every other lover
A shot ring's out and you go runnin' for cover
And I'm so sorry I can't be your father
And I'm tellin' you now
(Chorus)
I quit! I quit!
I quit! I quit!
I quit! I quit!
Ain't gonna go to work no more...(2x)
Ain't gonna go to work
