I'm so sick, sick, sick and tired
Of working just to be retired
I don't want to get that far
I don't want your company car

Promotions ain't my thing
Name badges are not interesting
It's much easier for me, see
To stay at home with Richard and Judy

Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here
Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here
Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here
Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here

I'm fed up of early mornings
Wake up calls are getting boring 'round here
Feet dragging on the pavement
The same people with the same arrangement

Oh irony can be quite funny
You're making other people money
My working day has just begun
It's not exactly what I would call fun

I want to wake up in the afternoon
Daytime TV and my favorite tune
'Cause it is much easier for me
To stay at home with Richard and Judy

Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here
Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here
Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here
Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here

Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here
Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here
Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here
Away, away, away, away from

Saturday is your only highlight
When you go out and live the high life
Meeting up with other people
Your interaction with the weak and feeble

At least when all is said and done
You wouldn't be the only one
To be a slave to the modern wage
Your crappy weekend is your only escape

I want to wake up in the afternoon
With daytime TV and my favorite tune
'Cause it is much easier for me
To stay at home with Richard and Judy

Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here
Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here
Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here
Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here

Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here
Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here
Whoa whoa, oh oh, away from here
Away, away, away, away from here
