I tumble out of bed and i stumble to the kitchen
|
pour myself a cup of ambition
|
and yawn and stretch ,trying to come to life
|
i jump in the shower and the blood starts pumping
|
out on the streets the traffic starts jumping
|
with folks like me on the job from 9 to 5
|
|
(chours)
|
workin 9 to 5,what a way to make a livin
|
barley 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
|
|
they let you dream just to watch'em shatter
|
you're just a step on the boss man's ladder
|
but you've got dreams he'll never take away
|
you're in the same boat with a lot of your friends
|
waiting for the day your ship'll come in
|
the tide's gonna turn and it's all gonna roll you away
|
|
(repeat chours)
