9 to 5 - Robbie Williams

She’s a working girl, in a modern world

She’s a working girl, in a modern world

Tumble out of bed and stumble to the kitchen

Pour myself a cup of ambition

And yawn and stretch and try to come alive

Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumping

Out on the street the traffic starts jumping

And folks like me on the job from nine to five

Working nine to five, what a way to make a living

Barely getting by, 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

Wanna 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 'em shatter

You’re just another step on the boss man’s ladder

But you got dreams he’ll never take away

You’re in the same boat with a lot of your friends

Waitin' for the day your ship will come in

Then the tide’s goin' to turn and it’s all gonna go your way

Working nine to five, what a way to make a living

Barely getting by, 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 and 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, no matter what they call it

And you spend your life puttin' money in their wallet

She’s a working girl, in a modern world

She’s a working girl, in a modern world

She’s a working girl, in a modern world

She’s a working girl

Working nine to five what a way to make a living

Barely getting by 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 and 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 no matter what they call it

And you spend your life puttin' money in their wallet
