Late for work

Got up late, I must get to work
The boss will be waiting and going berserk
Only 30 minutes to get there on time
A 20 minute drive so i'm cutting it fine
A quick cup of coffee, so tasty and pleasing
I jump in the shower, the water is freezing
No time for breakfast, not even a bite
Need to iron my shirt, should have done it last night
Get dressed and I leave and jump in the car
Shouldn’t take long as it’s not very far
The traffic is light and surprisingly clear
In only 10 minutes and I’m already here
But the building is locked then I hear a shout
It’s the security guard who’s lurking about
“you should go home and relax for a while”
“they’re not open on Sunday’s” he says with a smile.
