about

My ninth evil plan could get me a big bonus...or it could get me laid off.

lyrics

BOSS 1
Six a.m.
I drag myself out of bed
My head is pounding
My feet feel like lead
Grab a cup of coffee and I’m out the door
Boss man’s waiting at the company store
I work all day
Just to make my pay
But I can’t wait till the end of the day
I’m headed home
I know she’s there alone

BOSS 2
I’m glad that you’re home
I got something for you
Just a few simple things
That I want you to do
Grab yourself a drink
The night has just begun
I’ll let you know when the night shift is done
I really hope you didn’t work too hard today
Now I’m in charge and you’ll do what I say

‘Cause I’m the night boss
BOSS 1
Well all right, boss
BOSS 2
I’m gonna make you earn your keep
‘Cause I’m the night boss
BOSS 1
Turn out the light, boss
BOSS 2
But don’t go to sleep

At least until I’ve had my fun
I’m gonna need my fix
You’re not the only one
Gotta get up early
Fill my tank with gas
Gotta get to work and kiss the boss’s ass
I never get a break
I never get a raise
I hope when I get home I got a job that pays
I aim to please
I’ll get down on my knees

BOSS 1
Well I think I might have a great position for you
The question is what are you willing to do
I know it’s nothing that you haven’t done before
But we better shut the windows and lock the door
‘Cause the job I got for you just might be a crime
And I’m pretty sure that you’ll be working overtime

‘Cause I’m the night boss
BOSS 2
I won’t fight, boss
BOSS 1
I’m gonna really crack the whip
‘Cause I’m the night boss
BOSS 2
Yeah right, boss
BOSS 1
Don’t give me no lip

BOSS 2
Just you wait till tomorrow night
When I’ll be your boss
BOSS 1
Well I could go on strike
And it’ll be your loss
BOSS 2
You better not try it
Or I’ll fire your ass
BOSS 1
On second thought about that strike
I think I’ll pass

BOTH
I work all day but when the workday’s through
I’ll be punching that clock and coming home to you
‘Cause you’re the night boss
And tonight, boss
We both got a job to do
‘Cause you’re the night boss
We’ll do it right, boss
Yeah, the night boss
Love the night boss
Night Boss
