[Intro]
Hey!
Please don't make 'em do it
Ooh

[Verse 1]
God, this 9 to 5 just keep on killing me
I wanna leave this place like all the time
Talking to my boss, he just can't feel the dream
That's the chance to let me blow your mind, yeah

[Bridge]
Can't take a break (And you know that's right)
Money is tight (And you know that's right)
It's on my mind
Can't break away (And you know that's right)
Money is tight (And you know that's right)
It's on my mind

[Pre-Chorus]
When the feeling gotcha
You can't even hide it, acting so intoxicated
When you text me, "Hold on"
You will be there, girl, just hold on, uh!

[Chorus]
Saturday, all I wanna do is make you dance, girl
And fall in line
Saturday, all I wanna do is make you dance, girl
And fall in line

[Interlude]
Ooh, aye
Give it to me now
Woo, aye
Uh, aye, aye, aye

[Verse 2]
God, this 9 to 5 just keep on killing me
Tryna leave this place like all the time
Oh, my aching bones, they just keep killing me
Can't afford to have them spend my dime, hey

[Pre-Chorus]
When the feeling gotcha
You can't even hide it, acting so intoxicated (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
When you text me, "Hold on"
I will be there, girl, just hold on, uh!

[Chorus]
Saturday, all I wanna do is make you dance, girl
And fall in line
Saturday, all I wanna do is make you dance, hoo
And fall in line

You can call him Donald Glover, Childish Gambino, or just simply talented. Mr. Glover wears many hats when it comes to entertaining; in the last five years alone, he has been highly successful in the paths of acting, rapping, writing, and performing stand-up.

‘Bino has displayed great versatility over his rap career, from the boasting yet muted Culdesac, to the open and vulnerable yet sweet sounds of Camp, and finally to the brash/broken/sullen tour de force that was Because the Internet. He also has released electronic instrumental work under the moniker Mc DJ.

Donald broke a six-year streak of releasing projects in 2015. Instead, he made up for it by directing the FX series Atlanta—where he is also the creator and the lead actor. This role led him to win the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Television Series Musical or Comedy. In November 2016, Gambino announced his next LP, “Awaken, My Love!”, which released on December 2nd. His latest effort landed him 5 Grammy nominations in 2018, including Album of the Year and Record of the Year. With two Emmy awards and one Grammy under his belt, he is well on his way to EGOT status.
