Hey Julie Tab

by Fountains Of Wayne


       

                               
Working all day for a mean little man

                             
With a clip-on tie and a rub-on tan

                                                      
He's got me running 'round the office like a dog around a track

                                                    
But when I get back home, you're always there to rub my back

[Chorus]

   
Hey Julie,

                 
Look what they're doing to me

                
Trying to trip me up

                 
Trying to wear me down

                             
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it

                                      
And I'd never make it through without you around

                                      
No I'd never make it through without you around

                                 
Hours on the phone making pointless calls

                                               
I got a desk full of papers that means nothing at all

                                  
Sometimes I catch myself staring into space

                                      
Counting down the hours 'til I get to see your face

   
Hey Julie,

                 
Look what they're doing to me

                
Trying to trip me up

                 
Trying to wear me down

                             
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it

                                        
And I'd never make it through with out you around

                                        
No, I'd never make it through with out you around

[Bridge]
                 
How did it come to be

                    
That you and I must be

                   
Far away from each other every day?

                  
Why must I spend my time

              
Filling up my mind

                            
With facts and figures that never add up anyway?

     
They never add up anyway

                               
Working all day for a mean little guy

                                  
With a bad toupee and a soup-stained tie

                             
He's got me running 'round the office

                  
Like a gerbil on a wheel

                     
He can tell me what to do

                            
But he can't tell me what to feel

   
Hey Julie,

                 
Look what they're doing to me

                
Trying to trip me up

                 
Trying to wear me down

                             
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it

                                      
And I'd never make it through without you around

                                      
No I'd never make it through without you around

                                      
No I'd never make it through without you around
