Lyrics

Verse 1

Left my Cartier right on the marble sink

Staring at you over half a glass of pink

You said you were leaving 'bout an hour ago

Now your jacket's on the floor and you're pacing slow

Usually, I'm the one rushing out the door

Checking time, keeping score

But look at you messing up my routine

Got me clocking in for the late shift, babe

Pre-Chorus

And I ain't even watching the clock

Yeah, you got me locked

Ain't no closing time for this love we got

So baby, pull up a chair...

Chorus

'Cause you got me working overtime just to keep you close

Doing things I never do for just anybody, most

Yeah, we burning through the candles, burning through the night

And it feels so right, working overtime

(Ooh-ooh, working overtime)

Verse 2

Now you're talking all that talk in the kitchen light

Saying you could handle me from nine to five

Boy, please, you can't even handle midnight

You're yawning, but you're trying to put up a fight

(Ooh, look at you trying)

Acting like a boss, but you're tripping on my rug

Got you wrapped around my finger like a little custom mug

So go ahead, punch your card, let's see what you can do

'Cause tonight I'm punching in with you

Pre-Chorus

And I ain't even watching the clock

Yeah, you got me locked

Ain't no closing time for this love we got

So baby, pull up a chair... (Stay right there)

Chorus

'Cause you got me working overtime just to keep you close (Workin' overtime)

Doing things I never do for just anybody, most

Yeah, we burning through the candles, burning through the night (Uh-uh, uh-uh)

And it feels so right, working overtime (So right)

(Over... time...)

(Over... time...)

(Over... time...)

(Got me workin' overtime for you)

Bridge

Clock it, rock it, don't you ever stop it

Got the key to the vault and you know you got it

Tick-tock, baby, let the rhythm drop

Yeah, we never gonna let this feeling pop—wait, no, let it pop!

(Hahaha)

Clock it, rock it, don't you ever stop it

Got the key to the vault and you know you got it

Climax & Outro

Working overtime... yeah!

(Oh, keep it running, keep it— yeah, yeah)

Never clocking out, boy

(Do it again, do it again, ohh)

Burning through the night, yeah, yeah!

(Ain't no 9-to-5, baby, this is twenty-four-seven)

Just keep me close...

(Mmm, yeah, put the sign on the door... we're closed)
