Working 5 to 9: The song

Bathroom singer

14/04/2009 send to a friend

In the final of our 'speak peeks' at the 'Working 5 to 9' guide, which is available to download today, we end with our take on the Dolly Parton hit. Can you guess what ours is called?

Verse 1:

Sitting in my desk,
And doing the same thing,
Wearing my suit, waiting for the phone to ring,
Every day just doing this all the time.
But there is a way
To make things better,
Where I can choose to work in a sweater -
Working for myself, from 5 to 9.

Chorus:

Working 5 to 9,
Your own business in your spare time,
What I make is mine,
You know there’s no ladder to climb,
I am my own boss,
Only making my own coffee,
It’s a dream that I can turn into reality!

5 to 9,
It don’t feel like working really,
‘Cause I’m doing my
Passion or my hobby,
And for just these few
Hours that I’m giving,
I’m turning what I love into a living!

Verse 2:

Everything I do,
I’ll do it for me,
Deciding what’s best for my own company,
No-one to tell me what to do!
If I want to earn more,
You can bet I’ll make it,
If I want a break, well, yes, I’ll take it,
‘Cause I’m working for myself, and not you!

Chorus:

Working 5 to 9,
Your own business in your spare time,
What I make is mine,
You know there’s no ladder to climb,
I am my own boss,
Only making my own coffee,
It’s a dream that I can turn into reality!

5 to 9,
It is purest satisfaction,
When you’ve made success
Of a plan you’ve put in action,
And these fruits are yours,
To do with as you want to,
5 to 9 is the start of a new life for you!
