Story behind the song
This song came from an idea I had one night.
I have a routine usually on Friday nights where I sit down with my guitar and turn on the recorder and just play. One night this riff came out.
I had this picture in my minds eye of a guy in a Corvette, a golden Corvette, with a couple of beautiful super models.
He's wearing a Gucci suit and Rolex, all tan, perfect looking dude, a Turk.
We're at a red light and I am the working jerk in my 15 year old F150 coming home from my daily routine of being a working jerk.
So at the light the Turk turns to me and smirks.
In that moment this song came to life.
Lyrics
No perks for a workin jerk like me
There's no perks for a workin jerk like me -no no
I'm too slow to get a degree so no perks for me
I just work as a shipping clerk and there's no perks for me
But I see the surfing turks
On their golden surf boards
Riding waves against blue sky
And all they have for me is a
Smirk
For the workin jerks like me
I see, all the surfin turks and they're smirkin - at me
There's no perks - for working jerks - like me
Well it's plain to see
No perks - for workin jerks - like me
There's no - perks for workin jerks - like me
That's right
