there's nothing better than sittin' at home
when you should be on the job
called in sick to lay around like a slob
nothin' better to do than sit around and write
down a beer and grab a bite
find a sunny spot to plug in and type
get away from it all - the stress and the hype
see if you can't throw some thoughts on paper
just to get it out that's the caper
don't even feel guilty
you're due the rest
when at work you do your best
time to kick it back
and spit out your thoughts
watch the wind through the trees
carry guitar chords with the breeze
it doesn't really matter what you do
it doesn't matter if it's good
you only know one thing's for true
is write you will 'cause write you should
if you knock around words enough
maybe you'll hit on something
it can't be that tough
and anyway even if you don't
it's good to purge
if you get the urge
you can't if you won't
my mind like my eyes are dry
thoughts won't form and i don't care
I'll just give it another try
some other time somewhere
