| [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] |
|
| [00:28.700] |
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] |
|
| [01:20.140] |
On the same boat |
| [01:21.430] |
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] |

And you think that i would daunt you |
