Lyrics Working Weak - Speech Debelle

Working Weak

The screams from my alarm scares the sleep from me
It’s my sleep thief it steals dreams from me
It’s an invention invented with the intention of compelling
The most innocent of women to start swearing
I got a word with four letters to describe all the bullshit I heard on these
four days of work
Jackie from HR is soon to give birth so there backed up like brick wall or
black boys on a curb
Or at least that’s why I heard anyway outside in the smokers haunt earlier today
Until light rain landing right on my b&h the water that wetted it made it hard
to inhale
Four minutes more life is what a smoker would say like Jackie in admin who
drinks 2 litres a day
I know this because a little game I like to play
I waste time and gaze at the water cooler but today is my bestest day of the
week so far
It starts with f and ends with liquor
For tonight we laugh we joke and play hard
Every day it is the same show my boss is an a hole but I’m on the pay role so I
guess I’ll just stay
Can I tell time is what he know wants to know
I’m suppose to start at nine but its nine two 0
But it’s not my fault it’s the fault of Blair cause I went to the bus stop and
there weren’t no bus there
So I went to the train station and guess what I saw
People doing kung fu just to get through the doors
Started fighting cussing and pulling hair and you know that I’m farse so I was
staying there
But now he’s looking at me like I’m a liar but if he calls me that then I will
get fired
Cause even though it’s true I won’t except that no name calling that was in my
contract
But I’m a good worker file all my files on time
Don’t get my files mixed up with files that’s not mine
Printed on both sides are the correct codes
And if he act like he don’t know the I’ll make him know
But today is my bestest day of the week by far
It starts with an f and ends with liquor for tonight we laugh we joke and play
hard
