Lyrics
Intro
Oh oh
Hey hey hey
Chorus
Five o'clock arrived but I didn't leave
That man stayed barking while I started to grieve
For the person I was before the big change
Yeah everything shifted in a mental range
That desk is empty
That chair is empty
Verse 1
The copier jammed up
He called me a worthless mistake
Now he is gone
Hidden deep by the lake
Pre-Chorus
No more yelling
No more spreadsheets
No more suit and tie
Chorus
Five o'clock arrived but I didn't leave
That man stayed barking while I started to grieve
For the person I was before the big change
Yeah everything shifted in a mental range
That desk is empty
That chair is empty
Verse 2
Pink slip sits burning
Ash falls on my shiny new shoes
Peace is worth winning
When you have nothing to lose
Pre-Chorus
No more yelling
No more spreadsheets
No more suit and tie
Chorus
Five o'clock arrived but I didn't leave
That man stayed barking while I started to grieve
For the person I was before the big change
Yeah everything shifted in a mental range
That desk is empty
That chair is empty
Bridge
Cut the wire
Feed the fire
Watch him retire
Deep down in the mud
Red on the ledger is thicker than blood
Chorus
Five o'clock arrived but I didn't leave
That man stayed barking while I started to grieve
For the person I was before the big change
Yeah everything shifted in a mental range
That desk is empty
That chair is empty
