Karaoké Five O'Clock World The Vogues

Up every mornin' just to keep a job

I gotta fight my way through the hustling mob

The sounds of the city poundin' in my brain

While another day goes down the drain

But it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows

No one owns a piece of my time

And there's a five o'clock me inside my clothes

Thinkin' that the world looks fine yeah

Oh my lady yeah

Tradin' my time for the pay I get

Livin' on money that I ain't made yet

I fight the traffic just to make my way

While I live for the end of the day

And it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows

No one owns a piece of my time

And there's a long-haired girl and a place I know to ease my troubled mind yeah

Oh my lady yeah

In the shelter of her arms everything's okay

She talks then the world goes slippin' away

And I know the reason

I can still go on

When every other reason is gone

Yeah yeah

And it's a five o'clock world and she waits for me nothing else matters at all

'Cos every time my baby smiles at me

I know that it's all worthwhile yeah

Oh my lady yeah

Oh my lady yeah

Oh my lady yeah
