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... [Chorus] Fuck the bullshit, I tell you loud and clear I'm workin' 9 to 5 but I ain't gettin' nowhere Fuck the bullshit, I tell you loud and clear I'm workin' 9 to 5 but I ain't gettin' nowhere Fuck the bullshit, I tell you loud and clear I'm workin' 9 to 5 but I ain't gettin' nowhere 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 [Chorus] Fuck the bullshit, I tell you loud and clear I'm workin' 9 to 5 but I ain't gettin' nowhere Fuck the bullshit, I tell you loud and clear I'm workin' 9 to 5 but I ain't gettin' nowhere Fuck the bullshit, I tell you loud and clear I'm workin' 9 to 5 but I ain't gettin' nowhere Fuck the bullshit, I tell you loud and clear I'm workin' 9 to 5 but I ain't gettin' nowhere
