Tumble outta bed and
I stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
Yawning stretching try to
come to life Jump in the shower
and the blood starts pumping
Out on the streets the traffic
starts jumping For fools like
me on the job from nine to five
Working nine to five what
a way to make a living
Barely getting by it's
all taking and no giving
They just use your mind then
they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you
crazy and you love it
And you love it
They let your dream just
a watch them 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
Waiting for the day your ship
will come in And the tide is
gonna turn and it's all
gonna roll you away
Working nine to five what
a way to make a living
Barely getting by it's
all taking and no giving
They just use your mind then
they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you
crazy and you love it
And you love it
Working nine to five what
a way to make a living
Barely getting by it's
all taking and no giving
They just use your mind then
they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you
crazy and you love it
Working nine to five
Yeah they got you
There's a better life
And you think about
rich mans' game no matter
what they call it And you
spend your life putting
money in his pocket
