Premiata Forneria Marconi - Mr. 9'till 5 lyrics

Shiny shoes, he runs to catch the train

Rockets launched if he is late again

Pushed and squeezed on the sardine machine

To his Mr. Nine till Five routine.

Filing piling on his desk all day

In and out from tray to endless tray;

Tea and biscuits secretary's legs

Luncheon daydreams over curried eggs.

Yes sir, no sir, on the squawking phone,

Five o'clock rush-hour exhausted home.

T.V., bedtime and excite the wife

Set the clock get up repeat through life.

Mr. Nine till Five ...

Down on his knees for the weekend.

All too soon it's Sunday afternoon

Post the pools and watch the 'Box' till ten

Shuts his eyes, wakes up it's Monday again ...
