5 Days Left

If you’re counting our days
Then you're down to one hand
And I know that’s some math
We can all understand

So stretch out your fingers
And look at each one
Then imagine a day
You can lie in the sun

Your feet are propped up
With your sunglasses on
You look over and find
That your drink’s almost gone

You raise those same fingers
And order one more
It’s not time to stop
Cause you’ve only had four

You’ll think back to the days
When you hadn’t a clue
Of the very high toll
End of year has for you

There are kids who are hyper
And dull chores you must do
Like that huge Check-off list
From Mr. You Know Who

And all that you want
Is to hop on your Harley
Cause it’s hard to find words
That rhyme with Ms. Farley

But you sit back and wait
For your drink to arrive
Then your face gets a smile
Cause we’re now down to five
