9 To 5 Lyrics by Millencolin

9 To 5

[lyrics by dolly parton]

Jump on outta bed and I stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
And yawn and stretch and try to come to life
Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin
Out on the street the traffic starts jumpin
With folks like me on the job from 9 to 5

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

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
Youre in the same boat with a lotta your friends
Waitin for the day your shipll come in
n the tides gonna turn and its all gonna roll your way

Workin 9 to 5, what a way to make a livin
Barely gettin by, its all takin and no givin
They just used your mind and you never get the credit
Its enough to drive you crazy if you 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?
Its a rich mans game no matter what they call it
And you spend your life puttin money in his pocket
