Jack Parow Ode To You song lyrics

this is an ode to you, hate your job but the house needs food

you wanna quit, you wanna kill but the rent is due

push on through, hold on tight, fight the fight

there's a hand on your throat and it's holding tight

9 to 5, jy try, jy druk, jy hou styf vas

but you work for a boss and you hate his guts

jy voel stuck, maar onthou, ek's hier vir jou

whether jy numbers punch of jy huise bou

yster klou, days too long, nights too short

you just went to sleep, then you're back at work

if you're up at night or you're up at dawn

whether you're sweeping streets or you're mowing lawns

whether jy meetings het of jy parties hou

whether jy suits aantrek of jy klere vou

whether you're washing cars or washing clothes

this is an ode to all the working class heroes

bambe-zela, zela

bambe-zela, ohhhhohhh
