CHUMBAWAMBA RECORDED - 2 DECEMBER 2011 - BUTLIN'S SKEGNESS LINCOLNSHIRE ENGLAND - HAND HELD HISTORY.. 'I Wish That They'd Sack Me' Six in the morning don't want to wake Sun laying low and the world sleeping late Hate like the river runs heavy and deep Oh I wish that they'd sack me and leave me to sleep Five days from seven the week's hardly mine The alarm clock's gone over to enemy lines Waste my time working for cowards and creeps Oh I wish that they'd sack me and leave me to sleep Rain strikes the window heralds the day Rain won't you wash these eight hours away? Rain feeds the river runs heavy and deep Oh I wish that they'd sack me and leave me to sleep Birds at my window sing in the dawn By the time that I'm home all this day will be gone Spend my life sowing what others will reap Oh I wish that they'd sack me and leave me to sleep Rain strikes the window heralds the day Rain won't you wash these eight hours away? Rain feeds the river runs heavy and deep Oh I wish that they'd sack me and leave me to sleep
