The Midnight Oil

Lyrics

That call was from the office and I guess I'll have to burn the midnight oil again
 And honey, 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
