If You Die At Work, Then You Die In Real Life Songtext

The First injury on the job is the best injury on the job, it's the first injury
The first injury on the job is the best injury on the job, it's the first
I heard when you fell, that you took the place down X 3
And your screams could be heard from miles around

And the boss came from his office and said "what's this all about"
And he saw you lying there and his face turned to grout
He said "we can't lose this one" and he took you by the hand
He said you're the best employee that he's ever had
And the paramedics came, they had tears in their eyes
They said "this is the worst we've ever seen, and you're too cute to die"
As they strap you to the gurney, you think about your fate
Instead of dying doing what you love, you died doing things you hate

The first injury (etc)
I heard when you fell that you took the whole place down with you
I heard when you fell, that the whole place went to hell
I heard when you fell that you took the whole place down with ou
And it hasn't been back ever since

It's like on your way to work you got hit by a train
Or you slid off a cliff while you were driving in the rain
And who put that anvil on that broken shelf?
You know, once you get hit once then you'll never be yourself
Or how about the time when the airpump went awry
And it filled you up with air and you floated to the sky
The steam roller driver texting pictures to his wife
If you die at work then you die in real life
Everybody

The first injury ETC
And i heard when you fell that the whole place went to hell X 3
And it hasn't been back ever since
And it hasn't been back, it will never be back, and it hasn't been back ever since
