Forward thinking right left right left while in the back of our minds, we military recruits are clinging to what we sense is fading as we march.

Just like with many songs I hear, the noise from around and about or from the players music caused me to not hear all the words.

I got the cassette Album: Huey Lewis and The News.  Working for a living.  I looked up the lyrics because I never really heard all the words.

Working for a Living Huey Lewis and The News.

Songwriters: Huey Lewis / William Scott Gibson / John Victor Colla / Christopher John Hayes / Sean Thomas Hopper / Mario Carlo Cipollina

Some days won't end ever and some days pass on by
I'll be working here forever, at least until I die
Damned if you do, damned if you don't
I'm supposed to get a raise week, you know damn well I won't
Workin' for a livin'
(Workin')
Workin' for a livin'
(Workin')
Workin' for a livin', livin' and workin'
I'm taking what they're giving 'cause I'm workin' for a livin'
Hey I'm not complainin' 'cause I really need the work
Hittin' up my buddy's got me feelin' like a jerk
Hundred dollar car note, two hundred rent
I get a check on Friday, but it's all ready spent
Workin' for a livin'
(Workin')
Workin' for a livin'
(Workin')
Workin' for a livin', livin' and workin'
I'm takin' what they're givin' 'cause I'm workin' for a livin'
Whoa whoa, workin' for a livin'
Whoa whoa, takin' what they givin'
Whoa whoa, workin' for a livin'
Whoa whoa whoa
Bus boy, bartender, ladies of the night
Grease monkey, ex-junky, winner of the fight
Walkin' on the streets it's really all the same
Sellin' souls, rock 'n' roll, any other day
Workin' for a livin'
(Workin')
Workin' for a livin'
(Workin')
Workin' for a livin', livin' and workin'
I'm takin' what they're givin' 'cause I'm workin' for a livin'
Workin' for a livin', livin' and workin'
I'm takin' what they're givin' 'cause I'm workin' for a livin'
Workin' for a livin', livin' and workin'

Now that I have read them, I know being employed in 1982 was just like: Dying to Live by Edgar Winter.

We made it this far.  Guns & Roses asks the question in their song Where do we go now?

No one answers it better than each of us answering it our own way.

Are you willing to test yourself to find out why?  And what you would do once you have answered it your way?

Are you the Man from Gracie Abrams point of view ‧ 2023
 
24th Street
Where you held me, grabbed my arm
What a mental fire alarm
'Cause a lot of that felt wrong
Like I miss you
But when I kissed you back, I lied
You don't know how hard I tried
Had to fake the longest time
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
You look hopeful
Like we're supposed to work somehow
Can't you tell our light burned out?
Got a lot to cry about
There's nothin' left here
All our best years are behind
What a brutal way to die
But you choose it every time
So where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
We could meet down the line
After all of the time
And give an actual try
I can't promise you'll like it
I know I changed overnight
So I can't blame you for fightin'
And I'd be losin' my mind
If you lived in your writin'
'Cause now I'm half of myself here without you
You're the best in my life and I lost you
And we had no control when it fell through
It was one-sided, hate how I hurt you
If I could, I'd have changed every feelin'
Reservations were up to the ceilin'
Guess the space was the thing that I needed
But I miss you
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?

Or did you find yourself in a cloud on the Sea of Agony
