[Verse 1]
Working all day for a mean little man
With a clip-on tie and a rub-on tan
He's got me runnin' 'round the office like a dog around a track
But when I get back home, you're always there to rub my back

[Chorus]
Hey Julie, look what they're doin' to me
Tryin' to trip me up, tryin' to wear me down
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
And I'd never make it through without you around
No, I'd never make it through without you around

[Verse 2]
Hours on the phone makin' pointless calls
I got a desk full of paper that means nothin' at all
Sometimes I catch myself starin' into space
Countin' down the hours 'til I get to see your face

[Chorus]
Hey Julie, look what they're doin' to me
Tryin' to trip me up, tryin' to wear me down
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
And I'd never make it through without you around
No, I'd never make it through without you around
[Bridge]
How did it come to be that you and I must be
Far away from each other every day?
Why must I spend my time filling up my mind
With facts and figures that never add up anyway?
They never add up anyway

[Verse 3]
Workin' all day for a mean little guy
With a bad toupee and a soup-stained tie
He's got me runnin' 'round the office like a gerbil on a wheel
He can tell me what to do, but he can't tell me what to feel

[Chorus]
Hey Julie, look what they're doin' to me
Tryin' to trip me up, tryin' to wear me down
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
And I'd never make it through without you around
No, I'd never make it through without you around
No, I'd never make it through without you around
