VERSE I
ETumble outta bed and a`stumble to the kitchen
APour myself a cup of ambition
EAnd yawn n` stretch n` and try to come to Blife
EJump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin`
AOut on the streets the traffic starts jumpin`
With Efolks like me on the Bjob from 9 to E5
CHORUS
Workin` A9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin`
Barely Egettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin`
They just Ause your mind - and they never give you credit
It`s F#enough to drive you Bcrazy if you let it
A9 to 5 - for service and devotion
You would Ethink that I would deserve a fair promotion
Want toA move ahead but the boss won`t seem to let me
I F#swear sometimes that man isB out to get me Emmmmmmm
VERSE II
EThey let you dream just to watch `em shatter
You`re Ajust a step on the boss man`s ladder
But Eyou got dreams he`ll never take aBway
EIn the same boat with a lot of your friends
AWaitin` for the day your ship`ll come in
And the Etide`s gonna turn an` it`s Ball gonna roll your Eway
REPEAT CHORUS
Workin` A9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin`
BarelyE gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin`
They justA use your mind - and you never get the credit
It`s F#enough to drive you Bcrazy if you let it
A9 to 5, yeah - they got you where they want you
There`s aE better life - and you think about it don`t you
It`s aA rich man`s game - no matter what they call it
And you F#spend your life putting Bmoney in his wallet
A9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin`
Barely Egettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin`
They justA use you mind - and they never give you credit
It`s F#enough to drive you Bcrazy if you let it
A9 to 5, yeah - they got you where they want you
There`s aE better life - and you dream about it don`t you
It's aA rich man`s game - no matter what they call it
And you F#spend your life putting Bmoney in his wallet
