On Leave
I work for the people
Putting in the hard yards
But sometimes it gets too much
So time off is on the cards
I fill out my HR form
But I get stuck on question four
The hardest decision I need to make
Is which leave I should take
Don't need any bottles of wine
Or a trip of a lifetime
That's why I'm going on leave
Don't need to chase the dime
When I'm building up my time
That's why I'm going on leave
Sometimes I stop to think
I could quit and work for the man
Making all that extra cash
And all the benefits that come with the plan
But the thing that keeps me here
Besides Pay Day Lunch and four o'clock beers
And all my policy making powers
Is getting paid in non-work hours
Don't need any bottles of wine
Or a trip of a lifetime
That's why I'm going on leave
Don't need to chase the dime
When I'm building up my time
That's why I'm going on leave
Annual leave sick leave retention leave
Long service leave and all that special leave
Moving house jury duty bereavement leave
Or none of the above
Don't need any bottles of wine
Or a trip of a lifetime
That's why I'm going on leave
Don't need to chase the dime
When I'm building up my time
That's why I'm going on leave
Putting in the hard yards
But sometimes it gets too much
So time off is on the cards
I fill out my HR form
But I get stuck on question four
The hardest decision I need to make
Is which leave I should take
Don't need any bottles of wine
Or a trip of a lifetime
That's why I'm going on leave
Don't need to chase the dime
When I'm building up my time
That's why I'm going on leave
Sometimes I stop to think
I could quit and work for the man
Making all that extra cash
And all the benefits that come with the plan
But the thing that keeps me here
Besides Pay Day Lunch and four o'clock beers
And all my policy making powers
Is getting paid in non-work hours
Don't need any bottles of wine
Or a trip of a lifetime
That's why I'm going on leave
Don't need to chase the dime
When I'm building up my time
That's why I'm going on leave
Annual leave sick leave retention leave
Long service leave and all that special leave
Moving house jury duty bereavement leave
Or none of the above
Don't need any bottles of wine
Or a trip of a lifetime
That's why I'm going on leave
Don't need to chase the dime
When I'm building up my time
That's why I'm going on leave
