9 to 5 (FROM THE STILL WORKING 9 TO 5 DOCUMENTARY)

(9 to 5)

Tumble out of bed and I stumble to the kitchen

Pour myself a cup of ambition

Yawn and stretch and try to come to life

Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin'

Out on the street, the traffic's jumpin' with folks like me on the job from 9 to 5 (mm, yeah)

Workin' 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 (if you let it)

Workin' 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 (he's out to get me)

(9 to 5) 9 to 5

Workin', workin', workin' (9 to 5)

They let you dream just to watch 'em shatter

You're just a step on the boss man's ladder

But you got dreams he'll never take away (he'll never take 'em away)

You're in the same boat with a lot of your friends

Waitin' for the day your ship'll come in

And then the tide's gonna turn and it's all gonna roll your way (I just roll away)

Workin' 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 (but you won't let it)

Workin' 9 to 5, yeah, they got you where they want you

There's a better life and you dream about it, don't you? (You dream about it)

It's a rich man's game no matter what they call it

And you spend your life puttin' money in his wallet (puttin' money in his wallet)

Workin' 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 (crazy if you let it)

Workin' 9 to 5

Workin' 9 to 5

It's a rich man's game no matter what they call it

And you spend your life puttin' money in his wallet (puttin' money in his wallet)

(9 to 5) just workin', workin', workin'

(9 to 5) just workin', workin', workin'

(9 to 5) and you think about it, don't you?

(9 to 5) yeah, you think about it, don't you?
