tumble out of bed and stumble to the kitchen
|
pour myself a cup of ambition
|
yawning stretching trying to come to life
|
jump in the shower the blood starts pumping
|
out on the streets the traffic starts jumping
|
folks 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
|
|
they let you dream just to watch them shatter
|
you`re just a step on the bossman`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
|
the tide`s 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
|
|
you spend the rest of your life putting money in his pocket
