Lyrics
Verse 1
Been waiting all week long
Counting down each second gone
My chair's about to spin
As I pack up with a grin
Got my bag right by the door
Chorus
Finally free, or so I thought!
Living life just like I ought
Dancing through these office halls
'Cause nothing's gonna stop my call
(Nothing's gonna stop me now!)
Verse 2
Phone is off, I'm feeling light
Made some plans to stay up late
Friends are texting "Where you at?"
Got my favorite jacket packed
Then I see that little note
On my desk, it starts to float
Bridge
Wait a minute, hold up now
Something's off, I feel it somehow
Reading through these little lines
Making all my joy decline
Can't believe what I just read
Feel it spinning in my head
Rap
Listen up 'cause here's the situation
Got myself a brand new obligation
Thought I had a celebration waiting
But my supervisor's hesitating
Saying "Sorry but we need you here"
Making all my plans disappear
Got me trapped inside these walls
While my friends are having balls
Guess my couch will have to wait
'Cause someone's gotta stay till late
And tomorrow? Don't you dare
Ask me why I'm still right there
Chorus - Sarcastic
Finally free... (ha!) or so I thought!
Living life? Not what I ought
Dragging through these office halls
'Cause everything just had to fall
(Everything just had to fall!)
Outro
Monday's coming way too soon
Guess I'll dance here in my room
All alone with overtime
Yeah, this ending's so sublime
(So sublime...)
Fade out
