At home

I saw your message, please hold on
Today I won’t have any time till I’m at home
My plate is packed
But I have plenty of time tonight, when I get home

At home there’s time and peace sublime 
So much gets done at home
No cortisol, no conference call
No cheesy pranks at home

You’re right, it’s true, my budget’s due
I’m in a meeting but I’ll get it done at home

At home there’s time and peace sublime 
So much gets done at home
No cortisol, no conference call
No boring chat at home

I have to skip the show tonight
I have to plough through lots of work, tonight at home 
Do take a friend
I’ll be awake so call me up when you get home
