Karaoke 9 To 5

Tumble outta bed and stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition and
Yawnin' stretchin' try to come to life
Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin'
Out on the streets the traffic starts jumpin' and folks like me on the job from nine to five
Workin' nine to five
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
Nine to five 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 your dream just a watch 'em shatter
You're just a step on the boss-man's ladder
But you've got dream hell never take away
You're in the same boat with a lot of your friends
Waitin' for the day your ship'll come in
The tides gonna turn an it's all gonna roll you away
Workin' nine to five
What a way to make a livin'
Barely gettin' by
It's all takin' and no givin'
They just use your mind and you never get the credit
It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it
Nine to five
Yeah, they got you where they want you
There's a better life
And you think that
I would daunt you
It's a rich man's game
No matter what they call it
And you spend your life putting money in his wallet
Nine to five 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
Nine to five
They got you where they want you
There's a better life...
