Nice Work If You Can Get It
[Verse 1]
Running up the expenses
Running off at the mouth
Running out of resources and heading south
Sticking out your neck for me
Sticking it to the man
Sticking to a story I don't understand
Sticking to the plan
[Chorus]
I know I am expected to go
All for one for the show
Am I going to regret it?
Either way, the ship is sailing today
And I hear what they say
Nice work if you can get it
[Verse 2]
Showing off's half the battle
Showing up doesn't pay
Showing in those invited, but they can't stay
Pressing each other's buttons
Pressing on in the hopes
Pressing problems keep us pressing on the ropеs
That's how one copes
[Chorus]
I know I am expеcted to go
All for one for the show
Am I going to regret it?
Either way, the ship is sailing today
And I hear what they say
Nice work if you can get it
[Verse 3]
Turning into what I hate
Turning water to wine
Turning right on a red, turning on a dime
Turning one more time
Turning on my dime
