I don't think I'll make it in tomorrow
Got something growing on my neck!
Don't ask me what I think it is
My doctor says he really doesn't care!
Said I look like that green fella, 'Shrek! '
So I won't be coming in tomorrow
No matter how much I'm going to be missed!
But if you can find it in your heart
Slip some extra pay please in my check.
You see my wife has recently left me
And my baby needs a new pair of shoes.
And the rent is over two months late!
And my bills are way, way over due!
I hope you get this letter today
I handed it right on over to my mail man!
Oh, I didn't have a stamp you see
So would you pay him if you can?
