Today I'm Skipping Work

from Conflit Cognitif by Balance Lost

lyrics

Won't you sing a song for me
One that we can sing 'til the end
Sing it about bonhomie
And fraternity with your friends
They might let you down sometimes
But it's okay
Tides will turn and wee can learn
To laugh another day

Won't you make some food for me
A sandwich filled with ham and cheese
My mouth is open wide
Waiting for some tasty treats
If the rumbling in my belly
Starts to grow
It could cause catastrophe
1883, Krakatoa

Today I'm skipping work
I missed the turn-off and kept going
My head is full of half-baked plans
The world is bigger
Than a TV screen can show me
I want to t see it all first-hand

Now I'm watching Tottenham
And they might just win a game
It's a question that hinges upon
The goals of Harry Kane
Sometimes they play badly
But mostly they play nice
But mostly isn't good enough
There is no second prize (except for TV money)

As the sun goes down
Opportunities drift away
None of my intentions thrive
When I procrastinate
The work of today
Must now wait until tomorrow
The evening is for drinking
And anything that may follow

Today I'm skipping work
I missed the turn-off and kept going
My head is full of half-baked plans
The world is bigger
Than a TV screen can show me
I want to t see it all first-hand
