She called me up today
Meet me down at the old café
I jumped into the shower
I was getting my marching orders
We need to talk
Step into my office, baby
I wanna give you the job
A chance of overtime
Say, my place at nine?
(verse chords)
She'd never stand for any lies
She's got an Out Tray full of guys
I could sense a breath, a whole new feeling
Now she says she wants to call a meeting
(play chorus)
I'm a slave to work
I'm only living when I walk amongst the office staff
And catch up with the office wag
I'll be in bed by nine
My curtains drawn
My thoughts composed
I get to work on time
(verse chords)
She gave me some dictation
But my strength is in administration
I took down all she said
I even took down her little red dress
(chorus chords)
We need to talk
Step into my office, baby
I wanna give you the job
I'm pushing for a raise
Been pushing now for days
My output is in decline
I was burned out after Thatcher
My banner I laid down with a sigh
Now I doubt if I'll ever catch her
(verse chords)
I've got to change my ways
Dress for business every day
A smart suit and a kipper tie
A big arrow pointing to my fly
(chorus chords)
We need to talk
Step into my office, baby
I wanna give you the job
A chance of overtime
Say, my place at nine?
