I sit here on my perch
Gazing into the street
Feels good on my perch
It helps my aching feet

Call them back
Weight and vitals
Tell me your history
Please do not lie to me

Pinch the babies
Make them cry
So when they come back
They'll of me be shy

Well, this one lied to me
Now I stand before my boss
My *** getting reamed
Thanks to the one who lied to me

This one just found out they have cancer
Hold their hand
Hug them tight
As they ask why, looking for an answer

Wipe the tears from my eyes
It's time for the next
Look at the clock
After twelve
Still no lunch yet

The afternoons are starting
Still haven't been able to sit
My feet
**** are they aching

Now it's five
The last one just left
Missed my lunch
I don't remember if I peed yet

Now I can sit on my perch
Looking out my window
Watching the cars pass by

They're going home
That I long to do
The paperwork though
Home isn't coming soon

The day in the life
of this clinic nurse
So happy to just sit

***** my feet hurt
#nurse #sore #feet #foot rub anyone?
