Mac DeMarco – Brother Lyrics 8 years ago
I'm 24, started working after a life of studying. I had jobs before in my life but never formal. Now I have a schedule of 8am-1pm, so my schedule is short but mostly everyone works from 8am-5pm...
And here he sings

«You’re better off dead, when your mind’s been set from nine until five»

He's adivicing you not to take the common lifestyle of working from 9 until 5

Cause then

«You’re no better off, living your life and dreaming at night», telling you to live your dream instead of just dreaming when you sleep at night after a hard day of work.

«Take it slowly, go home.»

He might be talking about having some insight, get to be good just by yourself. So you'll be home everywhere.
