Lyrics
This is my first job I smell like a burger The register is easy Hey, you wanna burger? I hit the picture of the burger Ev'ry day, the same old thing Hello, chicken nugget, quarter pounder And I wait for that phone to ring, that phone to ring The phone at the end of the counter When I see the manager Writing down an order When I see the manager Making change When I see the manager Writing an address I whisper, yes!! Gimme some change And send me on my way Okay... I'm off on a delivery! And I'm finally on my own Off on a delivery! Delivery! Peace! And I'm headed to parts unknown! Off on a delivery, delivery... Fresh air and exercise And sometimes I'll throw in Some extra fries For calling it in today My world is grey Until they send me away on a Delivery! And the wind is in my hair! Off on a delivery No one's watching me I can wander anywhere Ahhh, Ahhh But the food is getting cold And so I do as I am told Responsibility I have responsibilities See my father sits at home He doesn't work any more While my mother works a double shift At the department store And it's nice Not having to ask for money And it's nice Not having to ask for dinner And it's nice, on nights When you have to get away... I need delivery I go to work every day I'm putting money away Hey, you know what they say Slow and steady I'm making minimum wage That's pretty good for my age If I can manage to save I'll be ready to go Wherever I gotta go, (ahh) Wherever destiny leads me (ahh) For now the restaurant feeds me And my family needs me Delivery! Yes! The customer is always right Where's my delivery My delivery? Thanks for getting me out Of the house tonight! Where's my delivery? I keep the orders straight And I say "sorry" if I'm late You're late! Some extra napkins for your plate For making you wait That'll be $12.98 For your delivery! I can wander out of range Here's my delivery My delivery! Toward a future new and strange Here's my delivery Delivery! This job is just a start But wait I haven't told you my favorite part It's when they pay... And then they say... Say... Say, hey! f**k it. Keep the change Keep the change Keep the change Keep the change And bit by bit I keep the change If I save a little everyday This job's gonna deliver me Far away I'll look back on this And say Thank god for Delivery!
