Belle and Sebastian
Step Into My Office, Baby (Live)
[Verse 1]
She called me up today
"Meet me down at the old cafe"
I jumped into the shower
I was getting my marching orders

[Chorus]
We need to talk
Step into my office, baby
Wanna give you the job
A chance of overtime
Say, my place at nine?

[Verse 2]
She'd never stand for any lies
She's got an Out Tray full of guys
I could sense a breath, a whole new feeling
Now she says she wants to call a meeting

[Chorus]
We need to talk
Step into my office, baby
Wanna give you the job
A chance of overtime
Say, my place at ninе?
[Bridge]
I'm a slave to work
I'm only living when I walk amongst the officе staff
Or catch up with the office wag
I'll be in bed by nine
My curtains drawn
My thoughts composed
I'll get to work on time

[Verse 3]
She gave me some dictation
But my strength is in administration
I took down all she said
I even took down her little red dress

[Chorus]
We need to talk
Step into my office, baby
Wanna give you the job
I'm pushing for a raise
I've been pushing now for days

[Verse 4]
My output is in decline
I was burned out after Boris Johnson
My banner I laid down with a sigh
I can't think what rhymes with Johnson
[Verse 5]
I've got to change my ways
Dress for business every day
A sharp suit and a kipper tie
A big arrow pointing to my fly

[Chorus]
We need to talk
Step into my office, baby
Wanna give you the job
A chance of overtime
Say, my place at nine?
