Sick Day — текст песни (Fountains Of Wayne)

Check out the girl in the harbor tunnel

Crawling to work six feet under

And the day has barely begun

Theyre all chewing gum



And laughing at the voice on the crackling radio station

Lead us not into penn station

Cause the best parts just begun

Were all becoming one again



And shes making the scene

With the coffee and cream

And the copy machines not working

Shes a hell of a girl

Shes alone in the world

And she likes to say hey good lookin

Shes on her way

Shes taking a sick day..soon



And here is the man pushing paper past her

Thinks up ways to make the day go faster

But the day goes on and on

He daydreams of his lawn

And all about the pretty careerist the next cube over

The fat secretary, the lunchtime lover

Til the path train finally comes

The platforms full of bums again



And shes making the scene

With the coffee and cream

And the copy machines not working

Shes a hell of a girl

Shes alone in the world

And she likes to say hey good lookin

Shes on her way

Shes taking a sick day..soon



And shes taking her time

As shes tossing a dime

At the man in the cardboard coffin

It doesnt have to be fine

Shes ahead of the line

And doesnt have to be here too often

Shes making a play

Shes taking a sick day..soon
