Yvonne is working 9 to 5 It pays the rent, keeps her alive Come 2 o'clock She's already thinking about the night At home she shakes off the day And begins her double life
Get dressed, shoes on, let's go Step into the shelter of the night Step into her double life Bit by bit she unwinds Into her double life Her double life
Around 2am she stumbles in Get some sleep, do it all again At work five cups of coffee Won't wipe the sleep from her eyes She won't be wide awake Till she begins her double life
Wash up, look sharp, let's go Silently she steps into the night Steps into her double life Bit by bit she unwinds Into her double life Her double life
No one's sure just where she goes Everynight in her sharpest clothes Some say she rendezvous With her loverboy uptown They guess as her shadow fades When the sun goes down
Yvonne, will you tell me Tell me where you're spending all your nights All about your double life Your double life Double life Double life, double life Double life, double life
Double life Here we are tonight In your double life Double life Double life
