[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

Here’s a hastily thrown together kitchen recording of a new song called Day Job.  We’ve been playing it for a few months now.  I had the chord progression and lyric; Jim wrote that opening guitar riff the 2nd or 3rd time we played through the song.  The drum and bass parts on the full band version are fantastic.

Day Job

They say you got yourself a day job

And that when the day is through, there’s nothing left of you.

They say you got yourself a day job

Now everyday feels the same.  Just called by another name.

    All the things we always thought we’d do 

    We’re never gonna do, so stop dreaming and work.

   All the thing we always tought we’d be

   We’re never gonna be, so stop dreaming and work

You went and got yourself a day job

No more playing in a band.  Now you’re working for the man.
