Lyrics
My mom and dad are always fighting
And it's getting very unexciting
To get a good job you need the proper schooling
Now who the hell do ya think you're fooling
For it's not my place (oh, no!)
No, it's not my place (no, no!)
No, it's not my, not my, not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
And it's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
It's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
It's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
Hanging out with Lester Bangs, you all
And Phil Spector really has it all
Uncle Floyd shows on the T.V
Jack Nicholson, Clint Eastwood, 10CC
For it's not my place (Oh, no!)
No, it's not my place (No, no!)
No, it's not my, not my, not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
And it's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
It's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
It's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
Don't want to be a working stiff
Lose my identity
'Cause when it comes to working 9 to 5
There ain't no place for me
In my reality
To me
Vin Scelsa is on the radio
Ramones are hanging out in Kokomo
Roger Corman’s on a talk show
With Allan Arkush and Stephen King, you know
For it's not my place (Oh, no!)
No, it's not my place (No, no!)
No, it's not my, not my, not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
And it's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
It's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
It's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
