Around the time I awake.
Unreasonable as my red-faced boss,
I snub like a pet shop snake.
maybe consider reversing this stanza... awake, toss, snake, boss... for some reason i don't like the sound of ending on a short note rather than a long one, but maybe thats just me
I don't care
If it's not fair.
Turn that light off -
I can't stand the glare. would it be over excessive to say "i can't bare the glare?" I only ask because you used care and fair... i dunno it does sound a little 'Dr. suess' like
Don't turn on the light,
Don't tell me your thoughts,
Don't care what the news says today. I could care less what the news has to say
Don't care what you think.
This trash bag is full.
The coffee pot’s empty. Hooray. - i like the sarcasm
Just leave me alone.
I really don't care.
Stay out of my way.
I'll get breakfast somewhere
On the way to my lousy job. - i'm iffy on breaking up the rhyme here.
It's not lack of caffeine
That makes me so mean,
It's YOU. well said
Good morning.
Whatever.
Have a good one.
I'll see ya.
Maybe it's not that I'm grouchy when tired,
Maybe that's not a fair call.
Maybe I just can't be bothered quite yet
To pretend that I like you at all. i like the repetition of the word maybe. the end brings it to a conclusion that is neither optimistic nor cheerful... i like that, seems realistic.
