Verse: 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. Chorus: 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? Verse: 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. Chorus: 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. Verse: 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. Chorus: 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?
