about

Fast and playful, Reuben's modern take on an alternative punk/indie rock song ironically vents frustrations of bad bosses and existentialism in the work-place through the lens of a gas-station attendant.

lyrics

(Sleeping in the back minding my business)

Hold me up and tip my till out
I won’t be stopping you, I don’t mind it
I work the night shift for peace and quiet

Drive off, don’t pay for your gas now
I won’t be stopping you, I don’t mind it
I work the night shift for peace and quiet

Blue jacket on, I can sleep in the back now
(Sleeping in the back minding my business)
Don’t ring my bell, pretend I’m six feet under

I’m your gasman baby, yeah
I’m your gasman
I’m your gasman baby, yeah
I’m your gasman

Light (light)
Up (up)
And (and)
Smoke (smoke)
As you fill up
I won’t be telling none of my minders
I work the night shift for peace and quiet

Slippery when wet, watch that slick
See if I care, tell my supervisors
I work the night shift for peace and quiet

Blue jacket on, I can sleep in the back now
(Sleeping in the back minding my business)
Don’t ring my bell, pretend I’m six feet under

I’m your gasman baby, yeah
I’m your gasman
I’m your gasman baby, yeah
I’m your gasman

I’m your gasman baby, yeah
I’m your gasman
I’m your gasman baby, yeah
I’m your gasman
