What a wicked life this can certainly be
I get so totally stressed I can barely see
Burning the candle at both ends of the stick
If I keep this up for long ill surely get sick
Working all day and then worrying myself at night
Worrying about a job that I won’t see till morning light
Employees working 24/7 and needing my assistance
I never get to rest, what has become of my existence
Sure I can take a holiday and sit back and relax
But only to return busier re-tracing employees tracks
They know their jobs but don’t like to think
I wonder how they breathe or even blink
You did that job a hundred times before
But when I’m gone you act like your four
You didn’t remember a thing that I taught you
Good thing you wear slip-ons, you couldn’t tie a shoe
I know they say easier said than done
But when things are tough, don’t just run
Put in some effort and use common sense
Don’t head for the hills and jump the fence
It’s not my performance that stresses me so
It’s being responsible for others who don’t know
They don’t ever know right from wrong
I don’t think their employment will last too long
Please just let my mind get some rest
I don’t need to insist on being the best
But where would my money come from
I’ll be broke, just a joke, or even a bum
These are just some of the things that cause my stress
I have it all together, but my head seems a mess
My only reprieve is to have a love that warms my soul
Love will relieve my stress, and make my life seem whole
