Calling In Sick

Im calling in sick
im calling in sick
this is mike and im calling in sick
my leg got hurt got hit by a brick
this is mike and im calling in sick
i spent four years in the USMC
i learned how to fight
i learned how to drink
and when i got a real job i couldnt believe
so every monday morning
this is what youll here from me
ive never had a job
more than minimum wage
ive never worked an 8 hour day
and if my boss says son you gotta work late
as quick as i could say it
this is what youd here me say
its 9:15 and im late again
i think ill finish that fifth of gin
then ill call my boss and ill tell him again
ill tell him that im not coming in
