[F]
That call was from the office, and I [A#] guess I'll have to burn the midnight [F] oil again
And hon, you know how much the boss depends on me to lend a helping [C] hand
I [F] watch him in the mirror as [A#] I lie and tell him I don't know [F] how late I'll be
[A#]
While I'm putting on my makeup, [C] I'm putting on the one that [F] really loves me
[F#] The girls all got together, [B] and they called to see if I could have [F#] some fun tonight
[B] [F#]
But you know me, the only thing I do is go to work and [C#] watch TV
[F#] I watch him in the mirror [B] as I lie and tell him I don't [F#] know how late I'll be
[B] [F#]
While I'm putting on my makeup, [C#] I'm putting on the one that [F#] really loves me
And tonight I'll [B] treat it again, and tomorrow [F#] I'll be sorry
And I'll feel kinda dirty, cause I'll have the midnight [C#] oil
God [F#] knows his dream would shatter [B] if he knew the devil had me [F#] and won't set me free
[B] [F#]
While I'm putting on my makeup, [C#] I'm putting on the one [F#] that really loves me
