Nine to Five Song

Tans; The M.TA., U.S.A.

live, work ing from day to day. Well we've done a day's

Let me tell you the story of a woman named Susie

Who applied for a job one day.

They tested her for typing, for shorthand and speed writing,

And they gave her the lowest pay.

Well, then Susie did the filing and she kept the correspondence,

And she answered the telephone;

Though the boss might be a doubter, still he couldn't do without her,

Wouldn't even call a taxi on his own.

Susie asked for a promotion and she sure caused a commotion;

He just looked at her in disbelief.

But the raises they've been giving sure don't match the cost of living,

Though the boss is still eating beef.

So Susie got together all the women in the office,

And they started to organize;

If you thought women wouldn't fight for a basic worker's right,

Then you're in for a big surprise!

Now, you women of Boston, don't you think that it's a crime,

That we suffer while employers thrive?

Women's work is never done, fighting back has just begun

For a better life from nine to five.
