I get lost sometimes When my work won't grab me From the pull of the outside world And there's a song we sing Leaves us always burning For them things we've yet to find We won't stop believing We'll be young always We know when it's time To be working on a twelve pack instead of 9 to 5 And 9 to 5 gives us the fuel for the ride As we cruise through this life past them speed limit signs We've seen a few drunken nights and some stories unfold We've set down the stress and replaced with a brew Don't quit your day job, but take a few breaks Not just for sleep or for sanity's sake But for waters uncharted and the good friends of old For the love of the ladies, and the bullshit we've sold Put down them papers, empty those minds Turn up the music it's time to unwind I got some time on my side and the world to see It's just a few of my friends and the song that we sing Sing it We won't stop believing We'll be young always We know when it's time To be working on a twelve pack instead of 9 to 5 I am found sometimes When my reason leaves me Taken over by the pull of the outside world And there's a song we sing Leaves us always yearning For them things we've yet to find
