[Verse 1 - a totally reasonable request]
Can I be
Your part-time lover?
'Cause it's okay with me
If we keep it on the low, yeah (It's our little secret)

You can trust me
To clock into work at an hourly fee
I'm working overtime 'cause we're meant to be
And if you don't agree well, then
I'm gonna go and call the union boss

[Verse 2 - a totally reasonable reaction]
I'm gonna fill out some forms
'Cause I'm going on strike
Don't want to be part time
Any more

'Cause I've been working
Work-work-working this friendship to the bone
And now I think it's time for some benefits
I can only get if I'm fully employed

[Verse 3 - a totally reasonable threat]
Can I be
Your full-time lovеr?
Do I need
To go get the press involvеd, yeah?
And that's my pitch to be your part-time lover
Get back to me in 24 hours
There's a lot of other ladies that are interested in this
So a prompt response would be nice
