Intro:
Tumble outta bed
And I stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
And yawn and stretch and
Try to come to life
Jump in the shower
And the blood starts pumpin'‎
Out on the streets
The traffic starts jumpin'‎
With folks like me on the
Job from 9 to 5
Working 9 to 5
What a way to make a livin'‎
Barely gettin' by
It's all takin' and no givin'‎
They just use your mind
And they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you
Crazy if you let it
9 to 5, for service and devotion
You would think that I
Would deserve a fair promotion
Want to move ahead
But the boss won't seem to let me
I swear sometimes that man
Is out to get me
They let you dream
Just a' watch 'em shatter
You're just a step
On the boss man's ladder
But you got dreams he'll
Never take away
In the same boat
With a lot of your friends
Waitin' for the day
Your ship'll come in
And the tide's gonna turn
And it's all gonna roll you away
Working 9 to 5
What a way to make a livin'‎
Barely gettin' by
It's all takin' and no givin'‎
They just use your mind
And they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you
Crazy if you let it
9 to 5, yeah, yes
They got you where they want you
There's a better life
And you think about it, don't you?‎
It's a rich man's game
No matter what they call it
And you spend your life
Putting money in his wallet
Bridge:
Working 9 to 5
What a way to make a livin'‎
Barely gettin' by
It's all takin' and no givin'‎
They just use your mind
And they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you
Crazy if you let it
Bridge:
9 to 5, yeah, yes
They got you where they want you
There's a better life
And you think about it, don't you?‎
It's a rich man's game
No matter what they call it
And you spend your life
Putting money in his wallet
