Overdraft in Overdrive lyrics

I got a letter this morning

My overdraft's in overdrive

They wanna know what I'm gonna do about it

How I'm proposing to survive

Stay alive stay alive oooh

They want the money

So I work and work and work

And work and work and work and work

They're making me roast

The check's in the post

You needn't worry, worry, worry

Worry, worry, worry, worry

You hit the roof when I'm on the floor

Did I ever let you down before?

I got a letter from my broker

He say he broker than me

My silver mine has tarnished over

I'm on the road to tragedy

Help me, help me, oooooh

I need the money

So I work and work and work

And work and work and work and work

I'm deeper in debt, I'm covered in sweat

You make me worry, worry, worry

Worry, worry, worry, worry

This nightmare's giving me the shakes

Hope I wake and find it's all a mistake

I started with nothing, and worked my way down

I know the things that I do, they mystify you

It's a strange way of living

But I like playing with fire

I'm always walking the wire

And when the tightrope snaps

You'll see my world collapse

I got a letter this morning

Must be my lucky day

Seems I've inherited a fortune

My Uncle Sam has passed away, away, away, ooooh

I'm in the money

No more work and work and work

And work and work and work and work

My banker's aghast, I'm dripping with cash

No need to worry, worry, worry

Worry, worry, worry, worry

You need an angel to survive

An overdraft in overdrive
