Lyrics

[Verse]
Generators clankin', but the crew stay slackin',
Late nights, no passes, caught in the action,
Late to the shift, where's the ride now, cap'n?
Lost in the lot, someone's always nappin'.

[Chorus]
Clock hits ten, should've been on at six,
Missin' trucks and luck, caught in the mix,
Payin' for the dames, can't catch a fix,
Generators whirlin', but the boys play tricks.

[Verse 2]
Turnin' wrenches, heads feelin' some fog,
Faked is the pass, like a dog chasin' logs,
Eatin' up dollars, girls' drinks like a hog,
Can't keep it straight, but they wanna stay blogged.

[Bridge]
Life in the barracks, dreams of wide nights,
Should be in bed, but they chasin' bright lights,
Missin' in action, shirkin' their rights,
Generators hummin', but they caught in fights.

[Chorus]
Clock hits ten, should've been on at six,
Missin' trucks and luck, caught in the mix,
Payin' for the dames, can't catch a fix,
Generators whirlin', but the boys play tricks.

[Verse 3]
Sarge on the prowl, boys caught in a dither,
Wrenches in hand, but their minds in the glitter,
Stuck on the base with a taste for a bender,
Trickin’ and spendin’, like ships in the tether.
