lyrics

No Work Today

Intro Riff
B
They need me at work today, I won’t make myself go
F#
Won’t be wanting to roll, I’m saying, oh saying
B
Won’t will I go go, oh no

Tell me what you need, Told to be in a place
Told right to my face, I’m saying oh saying
Can’t get on the case, oh no

C#m Eb7 E B
It’s worth waiting
Eb7 E B
Worth waiting, til they call
C#m Eb7 E B
While we sit here, trading
B F#
Trade me some time that’s my own to call

Intro Riff

Been sleeping on the job, get up later than late,
Not my boss that I hate, I’m saying oh saying
Time ties me, it grates, oh no

Feeling myself again, it happens here now and then
Where it flies where it ends, I’m saying oh saying
I’m the highest of friends, oh no

It’s worth hating
Hating that weakness is weakness myth
While we sit here, trading
Trade me the time, the strength, the bliss

Intro riff

They need me at work today, I won’t make myself go
Won’t be wanting to roll, I’m saying, oh saying
Won’t will I go go, oh no
