promise (60s group) - nine to five lyrics

[verse 1]
nine to five, she’s not alive
she’s merely existing
routine, in her world
her own way of life
no one lends a hand
hasn’t got even one friend
living in a land that’s
her own little world, then
like to take a closer look
at how she gets by

[verse 2]
in the square, she’s always there
at the church on sunday
feeds the pigeons, rushes home
all ready for her tea
waits for her auntie
she’ll be ’round this evening
tells boring stories
they’re all about her cleaning
break the chains around you lose
try to find some light
[bridge]
she has never been kissed goodnight
or told, “i’ll miss you tomorrow”
has she ever met mr. right
or anyone at all?

[verse 3]
given the chance to find the lance
i wonder if she’d take it?
mr. right just doesn’t exist
as far as she’s concerned
wants to make the break
but can’t face up to leaving
can’t upset her mother
she’d never stop her grieving
as for auntie, uncle
and the people next door

[verse 4]
same old faces in the places
that you catch her shopping
they all laugh behind her back
calling her “old maid”
if you should meet her
then try to be friendly
have a talk with her one night
and then perhaps you’ll see
if she enjoys her life
just like you and me
