- Oi, wake up, mate.
I ain't got all day.
(car engine purring)
I don't know.
Sleeping in the back of the cab all day,
this is gonna cost you a fortune.
Still, if I had the opportunity,
I'd sleep and get paid for it.
I had a guy in a back of the cab the other day,
drunk when he got in, fell fast asleep.
We went on.
