Overtime
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.
People all imagine
As they’re marching through the square
As they’re running for the Tube train
That could take them anywhere
Do you think and imagine
Where exactly that is
Will they kiss
Will they kiss
Well I dream of overtime
Rush hour trains that will be mine
I dream of overtime and
Rush hour trains and parking fines
We stand line by line
Everybody’s feeling fine
Tickets in our hands
So many dreams and plans
We dream nine to five
It’s better than a Soho dive
It’s better than anything anything
We dream of overtime and
Rush hour trains that will be mine
We dream of overtime and
Rush hour trains and parking fines
And I dream of overtime and
Rush hour trains and parking fines
I dream of overtime and
Rush hour trains and parking fines
Rush hour trains and parking fines
