Nine to Five

What's a nine-five job? It sounds exactly like what I want Young man, that is one party that you may not be able to handle Nine to five, nine to five Monday to Friday life Nine to five, nine to five ???? Nine to five, nine to five Stay to six, get overtime Nine to five, nine to five We motherfucking love our lives Wake up in the morning at six, breakfast with the wife and kids Pack yourself lunch, a ham sandwich, a juice box and carrot sticks Cafeteria food is expensive, it may not fit into your budget Hop on the bus public transit ???? Leave early in case there is traffic Bring a newspaper or your favourite music John Mayer to the ???? and Jon Bon Jovis greatest hits Get to work at 8:55, five minutes early so you have the time To pull yourself a coffee and say hi to your co-workers "Good morning guys" Talk about the shows that were on last night Or sports events if you're a guy The boss walks in and says "look and the time everybody get to work, Emmy is nine!" Nine to five, nine to five Bathroom break at 11:05 Nine to five, nine to five ??? chairs to support the spine Nine to five, nine to five External calls, make sure to press nine Nine to five, nine to five We love our fucking love our lives Photo copiers and fax machines A casual Friday you get to wear jeans (Yay!) How crazy is that, wearing jeans to work ???? wearing Hawaiian shirts Hawaiian shirt day, Hawaiian shirt day! Who said an office job wasn't a party? Health insurance, paid sick-days ???? goes to work on Tuesdays Jill's muffins are always a hit "What's the recipe, Jill? From Cosco..." "...still good choice. Yeah good choice there, nice and squishy" Staplers, keyboards and calculations Work related conversations "Hey, did you get my work-related email? Yes I got your work-related email..." "Your ??? screensaver is really ??? Thanks, I like your Starwars mousepad It was a gift from my dentist on my 30th birthday" Clock strikes five, it's the end of the work day Home by six, in bed by ten Wake up and do it all over again Nine to five, nine to five Why do I always feel like cry? Nine to five, nine to five It's not what I dreamt of as a child Nine to five, nine to five Everyday someone commits suicide Nine to five, nine to five We motherfucking hate our lives! --- Nine To Five - Jon Lajoie
