Midnight Oil

That call was from the office, and I guess I'll

Have to burn the midnight oil again

And hon' you know how much the boss

Depends on me to lend a helping hand

I watch him in the mirror, as I lie

And tell him I don't know how late I'll be

While I'm puttin' on my makeup

I'm puttin' on the one that really loves me

The girls all got together and they called to see

If I could have some fun tonight

But you know me, the only thing I do

Is go to work and watch TV

I watch him in the mirror, as I lie

And tell him I don't know how late I'll be

While I'm puttin' on my makeup

I'm puttin' on the one that really loves me

And tonight I'll cheat again

And tomorrow I'll be sorry

And I'll feel kinda dirty, 'cause I'll

Have the midnight oil all over me

God knows his dreams would shatter

If he knew the devil had me and won't set me free

While I'm puttin' on my makeup

I'm puttin' on the one that really loves me

While I'm puttin' on my makeup

I'm puttin' on the one that really loves me
