Day Off

I see the morning sun from my window
Not a cloud for a mile or two
Wearing out my slippers when I walk
But that's what I'm supposed to do
What is the purpose?
What am I doing here?
When I ought to be at work
I'm going round and round in circles all day
Can't stop thinking about where it hurts

Look ahead
Is this what I wanna do for the rest of my life?
Well, that's not right
Look ahead
Does it mean that I'm afraid to give it a try?
Yeah, just a try, ah

I'm taking a sick leave, forgot to make the call
Just let them know that this is too hard
I can't figure out what I'm gonna say
'Cause telling them a lie when I'm in bed anyway
A little scared as I dial the phone
Saying that the fever has got into my bone
I'm sweating like a pig when you return my call
Now get well soon, and take the day off

Look ahead
Is this what I wanna do for the rest of my life?
Well that's not right
Look ahead
Does it mean that I'm afraid to give it a try
Yeah, just a try, yeah
(Day off, day off)
(Day off, day off)

Keeping a straight face, trying to seem real
Enjoying myself, well, here's the deal
I'm never ever going back there again
No, no, hm-hm, no way at all
I'm never ever going back there again
I gotta be honest with myself
Yeah, I gotta be honest with myself

Look ahead
Is this what I wanna do for the rest of my life?
Well that's not right
Look ahead
Does it mean that I'm afraid to give it a try
Yeah, just a try

Look ahead
Is this what I wanna do for the rest of my life?
Well that's not right
Look ahead
Does it mean that I'm afraid to give it a try
Yeah, just a try
