I'm a slave to work

I'm only living when I walk amongst the office staff

And catch up with the office wag

           E      F#m
I'll be in bed by nine

My curtains drawn

My thoughts composed

I get to work on time

She gave me some dictation

G      D/F#             E7
But my strength is in administration

I took down all she said

I even took down her little red dress

Been pushing now for days
[Alt Verse]
Em           A
My output is in decline

                 G     C   A
I was burned out after Thatcher

E                D6
My banner I laid down with a sigh

A                   G    C     A
Now I doubt if I'll ever catch her
E7 [Verse 5]
            A7
I've got to change my ways

G         D/F#     E7
Dress for business every day

                   A7
A smart suit and a kipper tie

G     D/F#           E7
A big arrow pointing to my fly
