My mom and dad are always fighting and it's
Getting very un-exciting to get a good job
You need the proper schooling now who the
Hell do ya think you're fooling

But it's not my place oh-no no it's not my
Place no no no it's my-not my-not my place
In the 9 to 5 world and it's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world

And it's not my place with 9 to 5 girl
It's not my place in the 9 to 5 world

Hangin' 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

But it's not my place But It's not my place

Don't wanna be a working stiff lose my identify
'Cause when it comes to working 9 to 5 there
Ain't no place for me ain't my reality, to me

Vin Scelsa's on the radio Ramones are hangin'
Out in Kokomo Roger Corman's on a talk show
With Allan Arkush and Stephen King you know

But it's not my place But It's not my place
