9 to 5 and 5 to 9
Ain't gonna take it
It's our time
We want the world and we want it now
We're gonna take it anyhow

We want the airwaves
We want the airwaves
We want the airwaves, baby
If rock is gonna stay alive

(2x)
Oh yeah
well alright
Let's rock
tonight
All night

Where's your guts and will to survive
And don't you wanna keep rock'n'roll music alive
Mr. Programmer
I got my hammer
And I'm gonna
Smash my
Smash my
Brain!

We want the airwaves
We want the airwaves
We want the airwaves, baby
If rock is gonna stay alive

(2x)
Oh yeah
well alright
Let's rock
tonight
All night

We want the airwaves airwaves
We want the airwaves airwaves
We want the airwaves airwaves
We want the airwaves airwaves
We want the airwaves, baby

Watch the watch the way I walk
Can't you think my movements talk
Watch the watch the way I walk
Can't you think my movements talk

See me silently quietly creep I am too
amped up to sleep lamp rays shining down
Street lamps make the bussing sound subway
Creaking down below garbage piled up and ready to go

Lock the windows the gates on taxi in the
Distance coming along stalking the streets
Till the break of day New York beauty take my
Breath away near some cats but dog's don't
bark cool cats strolling after dark

Watch the watch the way I walk
Can't you think my movements talk
Watch the watch the way I walk
Can't you think my movements talk

Shaky lock and kicky door smokey air that
I adore down in the alley is where I hunt
All is quiet on the eastern front

Stalking the streets till the break of day
New York beauty take my breath away

Watch the watch the way I walk
Can't you think my movements talk
Watch the watch the way I walk
Can't you think my movements talk
Can't you think my movements talk
Can't you think my movements talk

Well I can't understand
Anything about you
Help you if I can
What can I do

Here's your new home
That's where you must be
In the institution
'Cause you're so lazy

But if you must act up
Again & again
'Cause everybody knows
You're a hopeless problem

Here's your new home
That's where you must be
In the institution
'Cause you're so lazy

You sound like you're sick
You look like your sick too
You sound like you're sick

But if you must act up

You sound like you're sick

Well I can't understand
Anything about you

You sound like you're sick
You look like you're sick too
You sound like you're sick
You sound like you're sick
You look like you're sick too
Well you sound like you're sick
You sound like you're sick

She's a sensation
She's a sensation
She looks a so sweet
She's a sensation
She's a sensation
Good enough a to eat

She's a sensation
oh-oh-oh
She looks a so fine
She's a sensation
She's a Sensation
I'm gonna make her mine

No matter what you do (you do)
I give my heart to you (to you)
And oh-oh-baby
I will give to you
no matter What they say (they say)
yeah, we can find a way (a way)
And oh-oh-baby we can find a way

I didn't know it till I walked you home
That, I feel the way I do
and I don't care
What the neighbors say
I always will be true
I always will love you
love you a-wo-wo-wo-wo

(repeat all)

I met her at the 7-11 now I'm in 7th heaven
Tell me, tell me can this be true
I never thought I'd ever meet a girl like you

She was standing by the Space Invaders so I said
Can I see you later yeah we went for a little spin
Down to the holiday inn

We was young and in love
We was young and in love
And you're the only girl I'm ever thinking of

We went down to the record swap the kids were
Dancing to the Blitzkrieg Bop
Bop-shoo-wop, shoo-wop shoo-wop
Bop-shoo-wop shoo-wop shoo-wop

What ever happened to the radio
and where did all the fun songs go
Summer fun, with the Beach Boys on
But we all know what went wrong oh-wo-wo

We was young and in love
We was young and in love
And you're the only girl I'm ever dreaming of

And so we went down to the dance
Which turned into a whole romance
And after just one night, I never knew things could be so right
Oh-no-no-no-no-no-no-no

I kissed and hugged her and I said good-bye
Last thing I knew she wouldn't make it alive
Oncoming car went out of control it crushed
My baby and it crushed my soul
Now all I've got is sorrow and pain
standing out here In the rain
the crash, the shattering glass,
The sirens and pain is driving me insane oh-yeah

We was young and in love
We was young and in love
And you're the only girl I'm ever thinking of

Sitting in my room record player on
Sitting in my room humming a sickening tune
Sitting in my room something to do soon

We know what we think of them the problems just
Keep piling in they got complaints about everything

Its us against them its us against them
Its us against them

They just wanna worry thats not what any kid
Should have to do they just wanna be so lame
Maybe they should try and sniff some glue
