Sick Note Lyrics

Don't wanna work today

The sky is grey

I'd sooner have that view

Than that grindstone blue

Aint got a hand to play

I'd rather hide away

Sure I'd head back there soon

but for now just sink into the glue

And there's no other reason for this

But there's got to be reason to slip

Hell I'm gonna need a sick note

For a while cause I'm broke

Gonna need a little air

As I climb these stairs

Don't quite know how I'll get a sick note

But I'll put in a call

And think of something in the moment

To summarise my fall

Don't wanna work with you

For a week or two

Might take a month or more

To get me off the floor

Don't think I'll use the time

Just think I'll make it mine

And simply shut my door

Rather than go to war

There's got to be a reason for this

To explain away the seasons that account for my slips.

Hell I'm gonna need a sick note

For a while cause I'm broke

Gonna need a little air

As I climb these stairs

Don't quite know how I'll get a sick note

But I'll put in a call

And think of something in the moment

To summarise my fall

It's a shame I have to call when I'd rather disappear

Kind of backed into the wall and kind of locked into the fear

Guess I'll just have to run away before I'm locked into a grave

Guess I've just found a perfect reason for my slip into the gray

Yeah

Now I've got to find a reason to stay

Hell I'm gonna need a sick note

For a while cause I'm broke

Gonna need a little air

As I climb these stairs

Don't quite know how I'll get a sick note

But I'll put in a call

And think of something in the moment

To summarise my fall
