At home

I saw your message, please hold on
Today I won’t have any time till I’m at home
My plate is packed
But I have plenty time tonight, when I get home

At home there’s time and peace sublime So much gets done at home
No cortisol, no conference call
No cheesy pranks at home

You’re right, it’s true, my budget’s due
I’m in a meeting but I’ll get it done at home

At home there’s time and peace sublime So much gets done at home
No cortisol, no conference call
No boring chat at home

I have to skip the show tonight
I have to plough through lots of work tonight, at home

Do take a friend
I’ll be awake, so call me up when you get home
