I Want A Day Off

I want a day off for Christmas
Only a day off will do
Don't want a dog or dinky tinker toy
I want a day off to play and enjoy
I want a day off for Christmas
Only a day off will do
Mom says a day off won't pay the bills
I'll just do free activities
Like video games and watching movies
I can see me now on Christmas morning
Well rested up
Oh a joy and what suprise when I open up my eyes
And see nine days of vacation off in a row
I want a day off for Christmas
Only a day off will do
No mean bosses, coworkers, and bad working conditions
I only want a day off work
To play and enjoy
And a day off work wants me too!

About this poem:
Looking forward to the holiday breaks I am going to get starting with deer hunting weekend, four days for Thanksgiving, and nine days off for Christmas. I was so happy I got yesterday off as I have worked about 20 Saturdays since I started working in April. This is a parody of I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas.

Hi, mcradloff,
I only want a day off work To play and enjoy And a day off work wants me too! Sometimes, getting what you want is something to celebrate - and write about - as is this. Enjoy! Thanks for sharing.

mimzy333, thanks for your comment. I usually find myself craving some other job that will be fun to do, like a paid writer, or singer.dancing hug chicken santa waving
