9 to 5 Songtext
von Caroline

I tumbled out of bed and stumbled to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
Yawning, stretching, trying to come to life
I jump from the shower and the blood starts pumping
Out on the street the traffic starts jumping
Folks like me on the job from 9 to 5

Working 9 to 5, what a way to make a living
Barely getting by, taking and no giving
They just use your mind, they never give you credit
It′s enough to drive you crazy if you let it


9 To 5, full service and devotion
You would think that I would deserve a fair promotion
I just move ahead but the boss won't seem to let me in
I swear all the time that the man is out to get me
They let you dream just to watch them shatter
You′re the first to step on the bossman's ladder
You got a dream he'll never take away
On the same boat with a lot of your friends
Waiting for the day your ship come in
The tide′s gonna turn and it′s all gonna roll you away

Working 9 to 5, what a way to make a living
Barely getting by, taking and no giving
They just use your mind, they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it

9 To 5, full service and devotion
You would think that I would deserve a fair promotion
I just move ahead but the boss won′t seem to let me in
I swear sometimes that the man is out to get me

I tumbled out of bed and stumbled to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
Yawning, stretching, trying to come to life

On the same boat with a lot of your friends
Waiting for the day your ship come in

Working 9 to 5, what a way to make a living
Barely getting by, taking and no giving
They just use your mind, they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it


9 To 5
You would think that I
I just move ahead but the boss won′t seem to let me in
I swear sometimes that the man is out to get me
