Working Flat Out is a tribute to all of the hard working folks in the world who assemble all of the goodies like homes, bikes, cars, buses, electronics etc. that make our lives so much fun. Making stuff seems to be in our genes so don’t knock it. This could be the first tune to feature an electric drill accompaniment.
Yeah, we’re working flat out
We’re working flat out
We’re working flat out
Aaaaah (Scream)
Today’s the day, I read it in the news
The good guy’s win and the bad guys lose
Today’s the day and there isn’t any doubt
We’ll get together and shout
Yeah, we’re working flat out
We’re working flat out
We’re working flat out
Aaaaah (Scream)
Working hard, just trying to clear my debt
And with me, what you see, is exactly what you get
The days come and go, I never take a break
I just got to sweat and make, make, make
Yeah, we’re working flat out
We’re working flat out
We’re working flat out
Aaaaah (Scream)
Instrumental bridge more work sounds
Chant: Flat out, Flat out, Flat out
It’s Friday night, I collect my pay
Gets me through the week, to survive another day
Rent is due, and I need to fix my truck
Buy some beer and maybe try my luck
Yeah, we’re working flat out
We’re working flat out
We’re working flat out
Aaaaah (Scream, elongated ah ah ah, ah a-ah ah)
