Skrewdriver - Mr Nine Till Five Lyrics

It's 8 AM and your day has nearly started

you must be at the office dead on Nine

hey Mr. Nine Till Five it's just another day

and you must have done the same so many times.



Reach the office you sit down and have a cup of tea

read the paper and tut-tut at the news

the enemies of this country are marching on our streets

but you don't care so long as they don't touch you



*Chorus*

Hey Mister, Mr. Nine Till Five,

won't you tell me what you think of life?

think of all the things you've missed

don't you want much more from life than this?



Pick your daughter up from school and take her home with you

you wonder why she's looking bored and down

you wonder where it was where you went wrong when she turns around and says

"well i hope i never turn out like you"
