24 Hour People

Lyrics

[Verse 1] He's having a good time but he's on the dole He never has no money but he's into rock 'n roll And you know he's great, you know he's gonna make it So you, don't you stand around and hate it [Chorus 1] 'Cause he's 24 hour people Yeah he ain't no 9 to 5 I said he's 24 hour people Won't take that same old jive [Verse 2] You know that she is living in the fallout zone Of new wave music and a broken home But she's got her young money and she's got a young mind So mister, don't you treat her unkind [Chorus 2] 'Cause she's 24 hour people She ain't no 9 to 5 I said she's 24 hour people Won't take that same old jive [Verse 3] They're living in the city, they know the whole thing's trash They don't want their new subculture messed around for cash And you know they're great, you know they're gonna make it So you, don't you stand around and hate it [Chorus 3] 'Cause they're 24 hour people Yeah, they ain't no 9 to 5 I said they're 24 hour people Won't take that same old jive [Outro] I said they're 24 hour people C'mon, c'mon, they're 24 hour people
