Call In Sick

Everyday’s the same old steady drone, like the tick of a metronome
It never skips a beat
Every weekend catch a breath before, Monday drags us out the door
And it all repeats
Well, we both could use a break
A day at home should do the trick
Why dont we just stay in bed and Call In Sick?
Pull the blinds and don’t take any calls, the machine can get them all
Today we don’t exist
You can fake a cold, I’ll fake a cough and we’ll call the whole day off
I doubt that we’ll be missed
Well, we both could use a break
A day at home should do the trick
Why dont we just stay in bed and Call In Sick?
Bridge:
Time to pull yourself awake
From this made-up holiday
I know this one-window bedroom is not, your ideal vacation spot
But if we could waste the day
Only getting in up to our toes, in waves of unfolded clothes
Then its the perfect place
Well, we both could use a break
A day at home should do the trick
Why dont we just stay in bed and Call In Sick?
