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.
