Dylan, Give Me a Break - Renee Davis

They sliced my tongue open, yes it sucks-

for relief from this I’d pay 3 million bucks.

They said it’d take a week to heal,

but now I think that’s a bullshit spiel.

 

Give me an extension, for goodness sake!

All this work by Thursday, it can’t be done.

Somebody please help, anyone!

 

I’m working so hard with no day off-

so much Percocet my legs are falling off.

My tongue is grey and yellow,

please be a friendly fellow.

 

Hey hey Dylan, give me a break-

Give me an extension, for goodness sake!

All this work by Thursday, it can’t be done.

Somebody please help, anyone!

 

I can’t spit, can’t swallow-

my stomach’s feeling hollow.

5 days of drinking through a straw-

can’t smile, laugh or do anything at all!

 

Hey hey Dylan, give me a break-

Give me an extension, for goodness sake!

All this work by Thursday, it can’t be done.

Somebody please help, anyone!
