A doctor's note can not prescribe
For what's inside my spirit
If the concern is absence
Allow me time to find what is missing
From me
I'm calling in sick this week

The body of a Pimlico horse
With potential for first prize
Losing sight of the course
My Soul is hoarse
I'm calling in sick this week

Cold or flu...
Allow me time to regroup
So I don't drown in the narrow canal
I have been swimming in,
I'll call a friend, meditate, eat
Spend the days asleep
I'm calling in sick this week
