Lyrics
Howl
We walk down the street with our heads held high, got someone to be today
Dressed so nice in coat and tie, ready to put on the play
Well morning coffee sure tastes good, I put on my caffeine smile
The next rung on the ladder is near, but I'm sick of playing the game
where they say
Bridge
Howl like a wolf if you want to, but cry soft
Keep your head straight cause you got to stay aloft
Prechorus
Do what we say, you'll get along OK
Do it our way, you'll get promoted one day
Chorus
Won't it be great to be OK? x3
Now we're walking home heads hanging low, got beaten down today
An untucked shirt and rumpled pants, ready to put a few beers away
Well I like my drink with noise and smoke, a fuzzy head makes me smile
Complain about work with the rest of the folk, our less than secret shame
still we say
Bridge
Howl like a wolf if you want to, but cry soft
Keep your head straight cause you got to stay aloft
Prechorus
Do what we say, you'll get along OK
Do it our way, you'll get promoted one day
Chorus
Won't it be great to be OK? x3
