Midnight Oil lyrics

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

And 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 kind of dirty cause I`ll have the midnight oil all over me

God knows his dream 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
