Return to Base

Nanananana
Get up late, the birds don't wait for anyone
If you're running fast, the bus goes past, too bad
You get to work, you feel a jerk, the boss is mad
He says 'you think we're on go-slow - you better get your cards and go go go'
9 to 5 - You gotta break out in the night time
You gotta make a weekend high time, after 9 to 5 - After 9 to 5
Got no job, you need to earn a bob or two
'Cos all your mates in the same state as you
Elpees careers can buy your beers and pay your way
You're on the dead end of the street, trying hard to make ends meet
9 to 5 - You gotta break out in the night time
You gotta make a weekend high time after 9 to 5
9 to 5 - You gotta break out in the evening
'Cos you never did believe in all that 9 to 5 - All that 9 to 5
Nanana 9 to 5 Clockin' in and clockin' all the office girls
Oh let me take you out tonight, Joanne
Will ya lends a fiver Ma I'm broke and I've got a date
She's a cracking bit of stuff, but she don't know when she's had enough
9 to 5 - You gotta break out in the night time
You gotta make a weekend high time after 9 to 5
9 to 5 - You gotta break out in the evening
'Cos you never did believe in all that 9 to 5
All that 9 to 5 - All that 9 to 5
