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
