Voice Male 9 To 5
I 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 pumping
Out on the street the traffic starts jumping
With folks like me on a job from nine to five
Working nine to five, what a way to make living
Barely getting by and it's all taking and no giving
They just use your mind and they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it
Nine to five 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!
They let you dream just to watch them shatter
You're just a step on the boss man's ladder
But you've got dreams he'll never take away
On the same boat with a lot of your friends
Waitin' for the day your ship will come in
And the tide's gonna turn and it's all gonna roll your
way
Working nine to five, what a way to make living
Barely getting by and it's all taking and no giving
They just use your mind and they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it
Nine to five yeah they got you where they want you
There’s a better life and you think about it don’t you
It’s a rich man’s game hah, no matter what they call it
You spend your life going funny if you want it
Working nine to five, what a way to make a living
Barely getting by and it's all taking and no giving
They just use your mind and they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it
Nine to five
