Skippin' Work Today - Eddie Kendricks

Out of bed grabbed my shoes

Off to work no time to lose

Last night I had fun but I’m the sleepy one today

So it’s off to work, how I hate to go

But I just took off two days ago

It’s such a lovely day, how I’d like to stay away

And do somethings I’d like to do

Skippin' work is on my mind

They’ll look for me, oh, I’ll be hard to find

My boss will be mad but I’ll be oh, so glad

Today maybe not tomorrow

There must be something that I can say

A reason to take off today

I know my boss thinks that I’m insane

But it’s too nice a day to take my break, that’s why

Skippin' work is on my mind

They’ll look for me, oh, I’ll be hard to find

Oh, JB the same, life is just a game we play

Skippin' work can bring me sorrow

I could, I could lose my job tomorrow

But I’m skippin' work

I’m, I’m skippin' work

I’m skippin' work today
