Monday morning, it's 5 A.M., I can hear the alarm clock screaming
The prelude to another day, wakes me from my blissful dreaming
Traffic is back-to-back, my boss never cuts me any slack
All I can think about is getting packed, there's an airplane ticket with my name on it
I'm always searching for a better life
I'm just tired of barely getting by
Doesn't matter how hard I try
I'm always looking for a better way
I know one day I will find my place
And be better off than yesterday
And on my way to a better life
All day long I give all I can, working hard just to make a living
What I'd give every now and then, just to be the one that's receiving
Paycheck's already spent, I'm already down to my last cent
All I can think about is where and when,
There's a beach chair somewhere with my name on it
I'm always searching for a better life
I'm just tired of barely getting by
Doesn't matter how hard I try
I'm always looking for a better way
I know one day I will find my place
And be better off than yesterday
And on my way to a better life
I'm always searching for a better life
I'm just tired of barely getting by
Doesn't matter how hard I try
I'm always looking for a better way
I know one day I will find my place
And be better off than yesterday
And on my way to a better life
