  • Текст песни The Vogues - % O'clock World



    Words and Music by Allen Reynolds

    Up every mornin' just to keep a job
    I gotta fight my way through the hustling mob
    Sounds of the city poundin' in my brain
    While another day goes down the drain (yeah, yeah)
    But it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows
    No one owns a piece of my time
    And there's a five o'clock me inside my clothes
    Thinkin' that the world looks fine, yeah
    (SCAT: oh-de-lay-ee-ee, etc )
    Tradin' my time for the pay I get
    Livin' on money that I ain't made yet
    I've been goin' tryin' to make my way
    While I live for the end of the day (yeah, yeah)
    Cuz it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows
    No one owns a piece of my time
    There's a long-haired girl who waits, I know
    To ease my troubled mind, yeah
    (SCAT: oh-de-lay-ee-ee, etc )
    In the shelter of her arms everything's OK
    When she talks then the world goes slippin' away
    And I know the reason I can still go on
    When every other reason is gone, (yeah, yeah)
    In my five o'clock world she waits for me
    Nothing else matters at all
    Cuz every time my baby smiles at me
    I know that's it's all worthwhile, yeah
    (SCAT: oh-de-lay-ee-ee, etc ) to end
