9 to 5
I'm sitting on a bus to my 9 to 5
An angel singing songs at my side
Watching all the people as we speed by
On this hamster's treadmill called life
Gotta go to work, gotta earn your crust
Finding satisfaction in a life of lust
Ain't got time for love nor trust
On this crazy treadmill called life
What's it all about?
Tell me, where's the fun?
I don't mean to scream and shout
But there's a change coming on
Work, work, work to get a little pay
If I earn enough I can retire some day
Get a good pension, yeah, that's the way
On this greedy treadmill called life
Days turn into weeks and months, it's all just the same
And everybody seems to play the same sad game
Who made the rules, tell me who's to blame
For this incessant treadmill called life?
What's it all about?
Tell me, where's the fun?
I don't mean to scream and shout
But there's a change coming on
They say that's just the way it is, but I don't agree
'Cos working every hour God sends just ain't for me
Now I don't mind grafting, even doing long hours
But me, I work to live, and not the other way round
What's it all about?
Tell me, where's the fun?
I don't mean to scream and shout
But there's a change coming on
What's it all about?
Tell me, where's the fun?
I don't mean to scream and shout
But there's a change coming on
An angel singing songs at my side
Watching all the people as we speed by
On this hamster's treadmill called life
Gotta go to work, gotta earn your crust
Finding satisfaction in a life of lust
Ain't got time for love nor trust
On this crazy treadmill called life
What's it all about?
Tell me, where's the fun?
I don't mean to scream and shout
But there's a change coming on
Work, work, work to get a little pay
If I earn enough I can retire some day
Get a good pension, yeah, that's the way
On this greedy treadmill called life
Days turn into weeks and months, it's all just the same
And everybody seems to play the same sad game
Who made the rules, tell me who's to blame
For this incessant treadmill called life?
What's it all about?
Tell me, where's the fun?
I don't mean to scream and shout
But there's a change coming on
They say that's just the way it is, but I don't agree
'Cos working every hour God sends just ain't for me
Now I don't mind grafting, even doing long hours
But me, I work to live, and not the other way round
What's it all about?
Tell me, where's the fun?
I don't mean to scream and shout
But there's a change coming on
What's it all about?
Tell me, where's the fun?
I don't mean to scream and shout
But there's a change coming on
