(Verse 1)
Alarm clock’s blaring, I hit snooze twice
Coffee ain't helping, but I pay the price
Drag myself up, same old grind
Emails waiting, deadlines tight
(Pre-Chorus)
Phones keep ringing, bids go through
Without me there, what’s the team gonna do?
(Chorus)
Can’t run without me, yeah, that’s a fact
The jobs won’t bid, the schedules crack
Spreadsheets freeze, calls pile high
If I don’t show, watch it all go awry
Can’t run without me, they all can see
Even ol’ Rodger with his bum knee
(Verse 2)
Numbers, meetings, deals to make
One wrong move, that’s a big mistake
Rodger’s pacing, rubbing that knee
Mumbling something ‘bout needing me
(Pre-Chorus)
Phones keep ringing, bids go through
Without me there, what’s the team gonna do?
(Chorus)
Can’t run without me, yeah, that’s a fact
The jobs won’t bid, the schedules crack
Spreadsheets freeze, calls pile high
If I don’t show, watch it all go awry
Can’t run without me, they all can see
Even ol’ Rodger with his bum knee
(Bridge)
I could call in, take the day
But by 10 AM, they’d be in dismay
Jobs unclaimed, no deals set
Rodger’s stressed, breaking a sweat
(Chorus – Big Finish)
Can’t run without me, yeah, that’s a fact
The jobs won’t bid, the schedules crack
Spreadsheets freeze, calls pile high
If I don’t show, watch it all go awry
Can’t run without me, they all can see
Even ol’ Rodger with his bum knee
(Outro – Fading Out)
So I clock in, ‘cause they need me bad
Without my work, this place goes mad
