9 To 5
Father's been working all night long
To feed the babies and keep them strong
Mother's been waitressing again
To pay for wasted time well spent
So pardon me Mr. officer
I have a little question for you
Why can't we drink just to get drunk
Why can't we smoke just to get high
I'm motivated by a nine to five life
It's worth the pleasure and the pain
To ride upon this one way train
And say that we've been able to provide
For you and yours and me and mine
So pardon me Mr. officer
I have a little question for you
Why can't we drink just to get drunk
Why can't we smoke just to get high
I'm motivated by a nine to five life
Why do we run just to stand still
Why can't we drink just to get drunk
Why can't we smoke just to get high
I'm motivated by a nine to five life
Why do we work just to get by
We're motivated by a 9 to 5 life
To feed the babies and keep them strong
Mother's been waitressing again
To pay for wasted time well spent
So pardon me Mr. officer
I have a little question for you
Why can't we drink just to get drunk
Why can't we smoke just to get high
I'm motivated by a nine to five life
It's worth the pleasure and the pain
To ride upon this one way train
And say that we've been able to provide
For you and yours and me and mine
So pardon me Mr. officer
I have a little question for you
Why can't we drink just to get drunk
Why can't we smoke just to get high
I'm motivated by a nine to five life
Why do we run just to stand still
Why can't we drink just to get drunk
Why can't we smoke just to get high
I'm motivated by a nine to five life
Why do we work just to get by
We're motivated by a 9 to 5 life
