lyrics

DAY JOB
My dad wakes me up at exactly seven am
Use the bathroom, get dressed, and we're in the minivan
Chomping down our breakfast, drop my sister at daycare
I get so excited, 'cause I know we're almost there

CHORUS: Off to school, more than a day job
With my friends, more than a day job
So many things we can be, so many things we will see
Before the clock strikes three

I have superpowers I'm encouraged to reveal
And I do things that my teachers can't believe are real
I stretch my mind and body farther than they've been before
Pass snack out at record speeds and hold the heavy door

CHORUS: To recess, more than a day job
Rest and Read, more than a day job
So many things we can be, so many things we will see
Before the clock strikes three

Day, day job... more than a

And when I get home from school you know mom calls me her super kid
I lift heavy things like the laundry basket and find where stuffies are hid (SUPER STUFFIES!)
And on the weekend at the soccer game I use my bionic kick
To shoot and pass the soccer ball super duper quick

CHORUS
