24 Hour People

[Verse 1]

He's having a good time but he's on the dole

He never has no money but he's into rock 'n roll

And you know he's great, you know he's gonna make it

So you, don't you stand around and hate it

[Chorus 1]

'Cause he's 24 hour people

Yeah he ain't no 9 to 5

I said he's 24 hour people

Won't take that same old jive

[Verse 2]

You know that she is living in the fallout zone

Of new wave music and a broken home

But she’s got her young money and she’s got a young mind

So mister, don’t you treat her unkind

[Chorus 2]

'Cause she's 24 hour people

She ain't no 9 to 5

I said she's 24 hour people

Won't take that same old jive

[Verse 3]

They're living in the city, they know the whole thing's trash

They don't want their new subculture messed around for cash

And you know they’re great, you know they’re gonna make it

So you, don't you stand around and hate it

[Chorus 3]

'Cause they’re 24 hour people

Yeah, they ain't no 9 to 5

I said they’re 24 hour people

Won't take that same old jive

[Outro]

I said they’re 24 hour people

C’mon, c’mon, they’re 24 hour people
