I ain't going into work today
I'm sick of making my pay
ain't gonna do one damn thing they say
I ain't going into work today
my boss keeps telling me to pick up the dirt
but that's because she still suffers the hurt
from when I left her when I became alert
of this angel in my life
Sometimes the pressure really gets to me
and I know this ain't the way it should be
a slave to wages was never my ambition
I just ain't going out there today
People looking at me thinking things are ok
when under their nose man I'm bleeding and itchin
I ain't going into work today
must be someplace else I coud play
besides it looks to me like it might be a nice day
I ain't going into work today
I ain't going into work today
I ain't going into work today
