10 CC - Working Girls

[Verse 1]
Working girls don't stand a chance
Typing pools are full of deadly fish
Office Romeos believe
Dictation is the statutory dish
Do they want you for your body
When you wanna use your mind?
Every day it's hustle hustle
But you're not the pushy kind

[Chorus]
You worry and wonder
When he calls you at five
You've got to work late
Will you get out alive?
You know what he's after
It's always the same
And soon you'll be playing
The cat and mouse game

[Verse 2]
Working girls they dress to kill
Posing for some glossy magazine
You know the flashman wants an exposé
But your momma says you gotta keep it clean
Still you're selling with your body
And the camera never lies
Every shot is more revealing, whoo
As your inhibitions die [Chorus]
He asks you to stay
But you want to decline
He leers as he opens
Another bottle of wine
Don't want to offend him
Your ticket to fame
So you play by the rules
It's a cat and mouse game

[Verse 3]
Working girls are lost in dreams
Buried in a paperback romance
Why don't you wake up to reality
And watch those fingers at the office dance?
When you struggle with your figures
Is he studying your form?
There's a silence in the boardroom
It's the calm before the storm

[Chorus]
You wanna go home
It's been a long day
The streets are so crowded
And you must get away
You'll be back tomorrow
He'll call out your name
It's business as usual
The cat and mouse game
