Enough Work For Today

Album ITrack 4JD McArrell

Lyrics

I get up in the morning with a sense of dread Time to make the doughnuts The quote I mutter as I toast some bread I can't believe how hard I work Will this grind ever end I can't believe how hard I work I'm in it until the end [music break] As I scroll through my email some douche cuts me off I yell get off your phone As my cigarette makes me cough Zoom meeting on the phone as I fish for my EZ pass This is my sacrifice How will I ever last Enough work for today This job really sucks Enough work for today Tell everyone off Enough work for today It's time to go Enough work for today Hit a new low Show up at work and they're pissed that I'm late If I ever get here early It's probably by mistake Get to my desk and launch Google Chrome Got to watch cat videos Before it's time to go home Enough work for today Time for a break Enough work for today Tell me I'm great Enough work for today Meetings on Zoom Enough work for today Hide in the bathroom My desk phone's ringing and so is Teams I need to step away The cafe is on the main level It is taco day It is only 10 am And lunch is at noon I'll have to keep busy until then So let's hide in the conference room Enough work for today I give it my all Enough work for today Chatting you up in the hall Enough work for today It's time to go Enough work for today I hit a new low Schedule some emails to go out after 5 This is how I show the staff I work hard and thrive I really left after lunch cause the tacos made me sick I give it all every day It makes me want to quit Enough work for today It's already after 1 Enough work for today Time to have some fun Enough work for today I did such and such Enough work for today Cause working hard really sucks

Inspiration

This song is about someone who complains constantly about how hard they work. Through the lyrics it becomes clear they have done approximately nothing. The scheduling of emails after 5pm to simulate dedication is based on a true and universal human behavior. "I did such and such" is the most honest line in the catalog.
