9 to 9
Three hundred miles away in a bed that ain't his own
Wife and kids in a big house all alone
New cars and the drive says everything's okay
But he wakes up every morning just dreading the day
Cause this nine to nine is killing me
What have we done in the name of the American dream
Oh, this nine to nine is killing me
What have we done in the name of the American dream
Kiss the babies before the sunrise
They're still dreaming, they got sleep in their eyes
She dreams too about calling in today
Where there ain't no will lord they can't ever be a way
Cause this nine to nine is killing me
What have we done in the name of the American dream
Oh, this nine to nine is killing me
What have we done in the name of the American dream
Chasing dollars as fast as we can
And losing time, we won't get back again
Chasing dollars that lead to nowhere
My God, this American dream has become a nightmare
Cause this nine to nine is killing me
What have we done in the name of the American dream
Oh, this nine to nine is killing me
What have we done in the name of the American dream
Wife and kids in a big house all alone
New cars and the drive says everything's okay
But he wakes up every morning just dreading the day
Cause this nine to nine is killing me
What have we done in the name of the American dream
Oh, this nine to nine is killing me
What have we done in the name of the American dream
Kiss the babies before the sunrise
They're still dreaming, they got sleep in their eyes
She dreams too about calling in today
Where there ain't no will lord they can't ever be a way
Cause this nine to nine is killing me
What have we done in the name of the American dream
Oh, this nine to nine is killing me
What have we done in the name of the American dream
Chasing dollars as fast as we can
And losing time, we won't get back again
Chasing dollars that lead to nowhere
My God, this American dream has become a nightmare
Cause this nine to nine is killing me
What have we done in the name of the American dream
Oh, this nine to nine is killing me
What have we done in the name of the American dream
