[00:15.655]Tumble outta bed and stumble to the kitchen
[00:18.149]Pour myself a cup of ambition
[00:20.650]Yawnin' and stretchin’ and try to come to life
[00:25.413]Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin'
[00:27.652]Out on the streets, the traffic starts jumpin'
[00:30.155]With folks like me on the job from 9 to 5
[00:34.400]Working 9 to 5, what a way to make a living
[00:39.152]Barely gettin’ by, it's all taking and no giving
[00:45.150]They just use your mind and they never give you credit
[00:49.154]It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it
[01:18.151]They let you dream just to watch them shatter
[01:20.901]You're just a step on the boss man's ladder
[01:22.911]But you got dreams he'll never take away
[01:27.900]On the same boat with a lot of your friends
[01:30.149]Waiting for the day your ship will come in
[01:32.913]And the tide's gonna turn an' it’s all gonna roll your way
[01:36.912]Working 9 to 5, yeah, they got you where they want you
[01:41.650]There’s a better life and you think about it don't you
[01:46.405]It’s a rich man's game no matter what they call it
[01:51.406]And you spend your life putting money in his wallet
