Big Idea: I need some days off from work
Song map
V1 Waking up to go to the job
Ch I need some days off from work
V2 Bless the job and come home in peace
V1
That alarm clock went off
I sat straight up
Hit that dismiss button
Wanted to lay back down
The voice in my head said get up
Hit the shower, clean up and think about
And how my day will turn out
How much more work do I have
Until I get some days off
Ch
Picked up the car keys
After I packed my lunch
Warmed up the car in ease
Went to get some gas
Trying to give energy drinks a pass
Thought about quitting again
I just don’t know when
Eight hours or twelve hours to go
Before I can go home
Time goes by so slow
I need my days off
V2
I want to walk out on my job
Put my badge and keys on the table
The days of companies caring has stopped
They want the money I can make for them
Do all the work that comes
Am I selling myself for a paycheck
Maybe I’ll feel better
After I’ve had my days off
Bridge
I counting day until my vacation
Apply my PTO to the situation
I so ready for some fun
Ch
Picked up the car keys
After I packed my lunch
Warmed up the car in ease
Went to get some gas
Trying to give energy drinks a pass
Thought about quitting again
I just don’t know when
Eight hours or twelve hours to go
Before I can go home
Time goes by so slow
I need my days off--2x fades out
