"Five O'Clock Shadow" lyrics - THE SWINGERS

THE SWINGERS
"Five O'Clock Shadow"

Alarm bell rings, the kettle sings
And you don't know what's happening
The night before is just another blur
The water's cold, the bread has mold
How many times have you been told
Or, is it simply never occurred
Can't get no job
'Cos you look like a slob
They took one look at you
Get out of my life!
Get out of my head!
You're a no-hoper, a no-coper, a real moper
There's no hope for you
I get a feeling that, You need someone to pull you through
You take a dip in the dark
Under the moonlight
A walk in the park, following
You take a jump in the lake
It'll be alright
You live in a Five O'Clock Shadow
Because you live in a Five O'Clock Shadow
And then they find some work for you
Collecting down at city zoo
Hate to see their cash in your palm

Comtemplate Suicide
But you're already died inside
Need another shot in the arm
You find a girl, she's a regular pearl
She takes two looks at you
Get out of my life!
I get a feeling that, You need someone to pull you through
You take a dip in the dark
Under the moonlight
A walk in the park, following
You take a jump in the lake
It'll be alright
You live in a Five O'Clock Shadow
Because you live in a Five O'Clock Shadow
Because you live in a Five O'Clock Shadow
Come the end another day
You follow the Five O'Clock Shadow
Look into the mirror
See a face, a Five O'Clock Shadow
Shadow, Five O'Clock Shadow, Five O'Clock Shadow [repeat]
Da-la-la-la-la [repeat]
