It was a grey dawn, penciled in lightly   The morning screamed, neath the traffic's feet   The razor burned commuters reflections   It didn't seem a visual treat.      The office staff begin the humdrum   Making the hours and the money flow.   The guilty lovers keep their secret   And hope it doesn't show.      Oh no office love is such a bitch   Oh no like a knife in the back      He catches the train up every morning   From his croyden executive estate   He's convinced he needs a new future   But she's prepared to wait      He swears to step cleanly from a marriage   That's become so tangled and confused   She knows he's lying for his pleasures   He doesn't see her cry.   He doesn't see her die.      Oh no office love is such a bitch   Oh no like a knife in the back      She goes home, knowing that it can't go on   Her secret fears become too strong   Seeing what little love she has she's losing   He's the type that manages to sleep at night   The guilt is safely locked away   But it was just another day, and he's so tired.      Her heart seemed set on destruction   With lips drawn pale and thin   She offered up love like a sacrifice   And he was closing in.      Her mother sat on the end of the bed   Through the dark hours of the night   Wagging her finger saying honey   This just isn't right.      Oh no office love is such a bitch   Oh no like a knife in the back
