Hit my snooze alarm for the 27th time

Just don't feel like goin' to work - I think I'll call my boss, then I'm

Gonna hack and cough and wheeze

Swear I've got some strange disease

What's that little twerp gonna say?

Hey



I'm callin' in sick today

Callin' in sick today



I could shine my pennies or clean my lava lamp

I could spend all day in my underwear watching 'Ernest Goes to Camp'

I could sit and count my hair

I could burp my Tupperware

I'm not busy now anyway

Hey



I'm callin' in sick today

Callin' in sick today

Ain't goin' to work, no way

Callin' in sick today



I can do anything I want to

I am invincible now

I'm on fire, baby

I'm alive, I'm alive, can you hear me, world?

I'm alive!



Maybe I'll spend all day staring at the sun

And trying not to squint

Maybe I'll make a huge color tapestry from

My belly button lint

When I'm sick of takin' abuse

I just make up some lame excuse

Freedom's just seven digits away

Hey



I'm callin' in sick today

Callin' in sick today

Ain't goin' to work, no way

Callin' in sick today
