Mr 9 'Till 5
Shiny shoes, he runs to catch the train
Rockets launched if he is late again
Pushed and squeezed on the sardine machine
To his "Mr 9 'Till 5" routine
Filing, piling on his desk all day
In and out from tray to endless tray
Tea and biscuits, secretary's legs
Luncheon daydreams over curried eggs
Yes sir, no sir, on the squawking phone
Five o'clock rush-hour, exhausted home
TV, bedtime and excite the wife
Set the clock, get up, repeat through life
"Mr 9 'Till 5" (Down on his knees for the weekend)
Five too soon, it's Sunday afternoon
Post the pools and watch "The Box" 'till ten
Shuts his eyes, wakes up, it's Monday again
Rockets launched if he is late again
Pushed and squeezed on the sardine machine
To his "Mr 9 'Till 5" routine
Filing, piling on his desk all day
In and out from tray to endless tray
Tea and biscuits, secretary's legs
Luncheon daydreams over curried eggs
Yes sir, no sir, on the squawking phone
Five o'clock rush-hour, exhausted home
TV, bedtime and excite the wife
Set the clock, get up, repeat through life
"Mr 9 'Till 5" (Down on his knees for the weekend)
Five too soon, it's Sunday afternoon
Post the pools and watch "The Box" 'till ten
Shuts his eyes, wakes up, it's Monday again
