Bm                               Em
Anthony works in the grocery store
A                                       D
saving his pennies for someday
Bm                         Em
Mama Leone left a note on the door
                   A                                   D
She said, "Sonny, move out to the country"

Working too hard can give you a heart attack-ack-ack-ack-ack-ack!
G                                  A
You ought to know by now
Bm                                     Em
Who needs a house out in Hackensack?
      A                                       D
Is that all you get with your money?
    G                                A          F#                         Bm
It seems like a waste of time, if that's what it's all about

Sergeant O'Leary is walking the beat
A                                          D
At night he becomes a bar tender

He works at Mister Cacciatore's down on Sullivan Street
A                                        D

You ought to know by now
Bm                                     Em
And if he can't drive with a broken back
A                                        D
At least he can polish the fenders
G                               A         F#                          Bm
It seems like a waste of time, if that's what it's all about

You should never argue with a crazy mind-mind-mind-mind-mind-mind!

You ought to know by now
Bm                                      Em
You can pay Uncle Sam with the overtime

Is that all you get for your money?
G                                             A           F#                       Bm
And it seems such a waste of time, if that's what it's all about
G                                  F#7
Good luck movin' up cuz I'm movin' out
