Skippin' Work Today

(album: The Hit Man - 1975)

Out of bed grabbed my shoes
Off to work no time to lose
Last night I had fun but I'm the sleepy one today
So it's off to work, how I hate to go
But I just took off two days ago
It's such a lovely day, how I'd like to stay away
And do somethings I'd like to do

Skipping work is on my mind
They'll look for me, oh, I'll be hard to find
My boss will be mad but I'll be oh, so glad
Today maybe not tomorrow

There must be something that I can say
A reason to take off today
I know my boss thinks that I'm insane
But it's too nice a day to take my break, that's why

Skipping work is on my mind
They'll look for me, oh, I'll be hard to find
Oh, JB feels the same, life is just a game we play
Skipping work can bring me sorrow
I could, I could lose my job tomorrow
But I'm skipping work
I'm, I'm skipping work
I'm skipping work today
