One Of These Days

One of these days I'll make some money

And buy myself those things that I want:

Acrylic paints, acoustic guitar strings, a new bicycle seat

For my ride over to your house each night

And one of these days I'll get a real job

One that actually pays

Like my dad had

You know my father, the bartender

Used to wear a suit to work

Before he hit the drink,

The old man used to do a lot of things

One of these days I'll give up

And give in to the man
