Kurt Nilsen - Day Off
Verse 1
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
Because I'm thinking about where it hurts
Chorus
Look ahead, is this what I want to 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
Verse 2
I'm taking a sick leave I got to make the call,
Just let him know that this is too hard
I can't figure out what I'm gonna say
Because telling my lies will end up bad anyway
A little scared as I dial the phone
Saying that the fever has got to my bone
I'm sweating like a pig when you return my call
Now get well soon and take the day off
Chorus
