From the recording I'm in the Band

“Late to Work” is a light-hearted escape hatch of a song — a story of aliens, Bigfoot, parallel universes, and the simple human need to laugh. It’s about letting the pressure off, opening the windows, and remembering that joy still belongs here.

Lyrics

I was driving on a lonely road heading for home
When way up in the sky I heard a faraway drone

Then I was abducted by Ancient Aliens
Little grey men with oversized craniums

That’s why I was late to work today
That’s why I was late to work
That’s why I was late to work today
That’s why I was late to work

Then they strapped me to a table controlled with thought
I’d say what they did next but I would rather not

Yeah, I was abducted by Ancient Aliens
Little grey men with supersized craniums

I was walking out in nature enjoying the breeze
When I spotted something moving behind the trees

It’s Yeti, Sasquatch, Bigfoot or worse
A large hairy dude from a parallel universe

That’s why I was late to work today
That’s why I was late to work
That’s why I was late to work today
That’s why I was late to work
