The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Smitty: Well, here it is five pm,

The finish of a long day's work;

And there they are, both of them,

The secretary and the clerk.

Not very well acquainted;

Not very much to say;

But I can hear those two little minds

Tickin' away.

Now she's thinking:

Rosemary: I wonder if we take the same bus?

Smitty: And he's thinking:

Finch: There could be quite a thing between us.

Smitty: Now she's thinking:

Rosemary: He really is a dear.

Smitty: And he's thinking:

Finch: But what of my career?

Smitty: And she says:

Rosemary: Hmm.

Smitty: And he says:

Finch: A hum heh.

Well, it's been a long day.

All: Well, it's been a long,

Been a long, been a long,

Been a long day.

Smitty: Now, she's thinking:

Rosemary: I wish that he were more of a flirt.

Smitty: And he's thinking:

Finch: I guess a little flirting won't hurt.

Smitty: Now she's thinking:

Rosemary: For dinner we could meet.

Smitty: And he's thinking:

Finch: We both have got to eat.

Smitty: And she says:

Rosemary: Achoo!

Smitty: And he says:

Finch: Gesundheit.

Well, it's been a long day.

All: Well, it's been a long,

Been a long, been a long,

Been a long day.

Smitty: Hey, there's a yummy Friday special at Stouffer's;

It's a dollar ninety vegetable plate

And on the bottom of the ad--not bad--

Service for two, three-fifty-eight.

(To make a bargain, make a date.)

Rosemary: Wonderful.

Finch: It's fate.

Smitty: Now she's thinking:

Rosemary: What female kind of trap could I spring?

Smitty: And he's thinking:

Finch: I might as well forget the whole thing.

Smitty: Now, she's thinking:

Rosemary: Suppose I take his arm.

Smitty: And he's thinking:

Finch: Well, really what's the harm?

Smitty: And she says:

Rosemary: Hungry?

Smitty: And he says:

Finch: Yeah!

Rosemary: Yeah!

Smitty: Yeah.

All: Well, it's been a long day.

Well, it's been a long,

Been a long, been a long,

Been a long day.

Well, it's been a long,

Been a long, been a long,

Been a long day.
