9to5 by Ran Reed Lyrics
[Verse 1]
All this hard labour gotta come to a halt
I'm workin' for the man but he's playin' me short
Thinkin' he's the Mac so he starts to preach
And every other day you hear some bullshit speech
Sometimes I wonder damn, why you takin' the trash
Then I realize 'cause I need me some cash
It's cool payin' dues, survivin' in the rain
I wanna entertain but my mother might complain
Just because I dropped out my sophomore year
She's thinkin' that her son won't have a career
She tells me you better shape up or eat the ship out
Damn it hurts when the brother can't pull no rip out
I got the bills but I ain't got loot
Got a little pocket change, but that shit ain't cute
I got my girl standin' right by my side, no doubt
And she's tellin' me to chill, we gon' work this out
5,25 yo I tell you no jibes
When you're makin' that a hour, it's hard to survive
So I wind this one time if you can't relate
I'm just a victim in this madness and I tryna escape
Escape, escape...
[Hook x4]
Fuck the bullshit, I tell you loud and clear
I'm workin' 9 to 5 but I ain't gettin' nowhere
[Verse 2]
For how much longer can I take the crap
It's the middle of the week and I just might snap
On my balls 'cause he's tellin' me I move too slow
Sucka, actin' like a bitch ass hoe
And just 'cause he's the man he ain't givin' respect
Everytime I turn around he's breathin' down my neck
Do this, do that, it's the same old song
And if you ain't doin' this, wait, you're doin' it wrong
All the bullshit just for minimum wage
I'd rather do shows, smokin' buddah on stage
But now it's just the dream to make the [?]
For now I gots to pay dues and unload trucks
[Hook x4]
Fuck the bullshit, I tell you loud and clear
I'm workin' 9 to 5 but I ain't gettin' nowhere
All this hard labour gotta come to a halt
I'm workin' for the man but he's playin' me short
Thinkin' he's the Mac so he starts to preach
And every other day you hear some bullshit speech
Sometimes I wonder damn, why you takin' the trash
Then I realize 'cause I need me some cash
It's cool payin' dues, survivin' in the rain
I wanna entertain but my mother might complain
Just because I dropped out my sophomore year
She's thinkin' that her son won't have a career
She tells me you better shape up or eat the ship out
Damn it hurts when the brother can't pull no rip out

Got a little pocket change, but that shit ain't cute
I got my girl standin' right by my side, no doubt
And she's tellin' me to chill, we gon' work this out
