Nice Work If You Can Get It Lyrics

Nice Work If You Can Get It Lyrics

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

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

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 ropes
That's how one copes

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

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
