[00:10.060] |
Tumble outta bed |
[00:11.290] |
And stumble to the kitchen |
[00:12.510] |
Pour myself a cup of ambition |
[00:14.810] |
Yawnin', stretchin', try to come to life |
[00:19.550] |
Jump in the shower |
[00:20.880] |
And the blood starts pumpin' |
[00:22.170] |
Out on the streets |
[00:23.330] |
The traffic starts jumpin' |
[00:24.470] |
And folks like me on the job from 9 to 5 |
[00:27.780] |
Chorus: |
[00:28.210] |

Workin' 9 to 5 |
[00:30.690] |
What a way to make a livin' |
[00:33.120] |
Barely gettin' by |
[00:35.310] |
It's all takin' |
[00:36.440] |
And no givin' |
[00:37.780] |
They just use your mind |
[00:39.940] |
And they never give you credit |
[00:42.250] |
It's enough to drive you |
[00:44.450] |
Crazy if you let it |
[00:46.440] |
|
[00:47.280] |
9 to 5, for service and devotion |
[00:52.190] |
You would think that i |
[00:54.450] |
Would deserve a fair promotion |
[00:56.660] |
Want to move ahead |
[00:58.830] |
But the boss won't seem to let me in |
[01:01.210] |
I swear sometimes that man is out to get me |
[01:06.100] |
Mmmmm... |
[01:08.690] |
|
[01:10.860] |
They let your dream |
[01:12.120] |
Just a' watch 'em shatter |
[01:13.230] |
You're just a step |
[01:14.350] |
On the boss man's a' ladder |
[01:15.770] |
But you got dream he'll never take away |
[01:19.310] |

With a lot of your friends |
[01:22.580] |
Waitin' for the day |
[01:23.870] |
Your ship'll come in |
[01:24.850] |
And the tide's gonna turn |
[01:26.650] |
An' it's all gonna roll you away |
[01:27.370] |
|
[01:28.310] |
