[Verse 1]
I think my granddaddy's looking down at me
Saying, "Kiddo, is that all you got?"
I must be too sensitive
Cause the world's got me crying too often
And no one wants to hear me go boo hoo ooh
But my mom can't come to this job
And I need this job to go on
On, on
[Chorus]
9 to 5 you'll find me waiting
Waiting to start my life
5 to 9 on most nights
Watching pass me by
9 to 5 you got me saying
Down into all my time
5 to 9 on most nights
I'll lie in bed holding tight
[Verse 2]
Shh, hey hmm
I wonder if I chose the right path
If I leave now, am I leaving the cash?
If I quit now, am I quitting the past?
Don't tell me now, no we're moving too fast, but
This can't be it, this can't be right
This can't be all is there to life
I asked my dad, I read the book
There's no answers undefined
Trying to find, trying to find yeah
How do I know if I never try
But I'm scared it won't fly
Oh, I'm paralyzed
Might do this till the day I die
What do I do?
What do I do that makes me feel alive?
[Chorus]
9 to 5 you'll find me waiting
Waiting to start my life (Start my life)
5 to 9 on most nights
Watching pass me by (Pass me by)
9 to 5 you got me saying
Down into all my time (On it, yeah)
5 to 9 on most nights
I'll lie in bed holding tight (Tight)
9 to 5 you'll find me waiting (9 to 5)
Waiting to start my life (My life away)
5 to 9 on most nights
Watching pass me by (Goodbye today & tomorrow)
9 to 5 you got me saying
Down into all my time (All my time)
5 to 9 on most nights
I'll lie in bed holding tight
