Sunday and I said a prayer, and why,
because I care?
and so I'm as sure as water runs its course
that the horse I bet on will get on famously.

Finished early and I know that they know that I've gone
and I know too that work will carry on without me
probably quite splendidly,

I'm not getting worked up anymore
about getting worked up at work

I am
you are
we all can be
replaced
and
very easily.

but tomorrow I work the early shift
they think that it's hard but to me
it's a gift.

I'm going sleeping
it would have been fishing
but it's after nine of the clock.
