Disgruntled

With a promise and a prayer
And a sparkle in his eye
He goes to work everyday
But he's barely getting by
And at the end of the week
Without a dollar to his name
He gets ready for the next
To get up and do the same

Day in day out
Same old song and dance
Same shit different day
And his wife wears the pants
Disgruntled
With a picture of his kids
And a gun held to his head
He thanks God for a life
That is soon to become dead
And at the end of the note
It says you know my time has come
I don't want this anymore
And I feel my life is done
Life is done

With a promise and a prayer
And sparkle in her eye
She goes to work everyday
But she's barely getting by
And at the end of the week
Without a dollar to her name
She gets ready for the next
To get up and do the same
Do the same
Disgruntled
