Shiney's Working Hard

I've been putting a lot of thought and time into our first hit, All That Time, and, just like 4-Slyce's ideas, I think it will be totally acceptable. Here's some filler in the way of lyrics thus far. i have sort of worked out a chorus, well, the beginnings of one I should say.

You had all that time
It’s really not fair to those of us
Who work the nine to five
Then come home to the kids
And a screaming wife

I think you’re out of line
For keeping house all day alone
It’s like you’re riding pine
For a JV level home
That controls your life

You got the TV on
And your eyes are glazing o’er
You’re thinking of a blonde
—one of two that you let go—
And how she’s really gone

She’s your sacrifice
To this time-wasting vice

I hear the clock. Tick.
It means another meeting’s dragging me out the door.
Your skin is so. Thick.
Good ideas bombard you but they just fall to the floor.

I guess I had my time
And I ended up alright
I work a nine to five
And come home to the kids
And my lovely wife

PS I really like You Don't Feel Like Home to Me on The Good Life's new album, Help Wanted Nights. And Keely Aimee is good too. Those two songs made the album worth it to me.
