Janitor Joe from Manifesto by The Discarded

Janitor Joe
Tote the pail, swing the mop
Working day I better not stop
Dust the shelves, sweep the floor
Then unlock the front door

He’s Janitor Joe, no area neglected- Janitor Joe, the toilets disinfected
Janitor Joe, has to survive- So in the morning he arrives

Afternoon clean the shop
Metal and grime to three o’clock
Coffee truck, empty the trash
His hand it hurts from his finger he smashed

He’s Janitor Joe, no area neglected- Janitor Joe, the toilets disinfected
Janitor Joe, has to survive- So every morning he arrives

It’s five o’clock it’s quitting time
Until the next morning and the same old grind
Janitor Joe what have you learned?
What happened to the money that you earn?

Well Janitor Joe isn’t that dumb
He’s got a kid and a college fund
A wife, house that he doesn’t shirk
So every morning he’s off to work

He’s Janitor Joe, no area neglected- Janitor Joe, his life is perfected
Janitor Joe says he’s happy- Gets the job done and he makes it snappy
