The Nine-To-Five-rs hit the sofa in the lounge
The Five-'Til-Midnights put more coal on the National Grid
Those ITV soaps need extra megawatts
As workers tire of adverts from the people they've been working for all day
Put the kettle on! It's time to relax
Put the kettle on! We need a few laughs

We have a peephole to the corridors of power
We have a portal to wealth and fame in front of us
It's our reward for toiling, chomping at the bit
Dreaming of time when we can break the ties and blow it all away
Put the kettle on! It's time to relax
Put the kettle on! We need a few laughs

Always thought that there was something more
More than this
Evening cups of tea and shows we cannot miss, just can't miss
Never wonder, never wonder how
It's all we seem to want right now

And so tomorrow? - Well the whole thing starts again
With Fog & Rain at Blubberhouses, traffic jams and supervisors
When are you you? You seem so far away
You can't take it with you but you can try for yet another day
Put the kettle on! It's time to relax
Put the kettle on! We need a few laughs
