My mom and dad are always fighting 
And it's getting very unexciting 
To get a good job 
You need a proper schooling 
Now who the hell 
Do ya think you're fooling 
 
But it's not my place oh no 
No it's not my place no no 
No it's not my not my not my place 
In the 9 to 5 world 
And it's not my place 
In the 9 to 5 world 
 
And it's not my place 
with 9 to 5 girl 
It's not my place 
In the 9 to 5 world 
 
Hangin' out with Lester Bangs you all 
And Phil Spector really has it all 
Uncle Floyd shows on the T.V. 
Jack Nicholson, Clint Eastwood, 10cc 
 
But it's not my place 
 
Don't wanna be a working stiff 
Lose my identity 
'Cause when it comes 
To working 9 to 5 
There ain't not place for me 
Ain't my reality to me 
 
Vin Scelsa's on the radio 
Ramones are hangin' out in Kokomo 
Roger Corman's on a talk show 
With Allan Arkush and Stephen King 
You know 
But it's not my place
