166 - Better Than Work

[Verse 1] Alarm goes off at five Coffee in a plastic cup Mask and fins in the backseat Beat the sunrise to the dock Office people in my phone Already sending little pings I hit airplane mode, smile I’ve got salt and fins

[Pre-Chorus] Suit up on a wobbly deck Little chill running down my neck Buddy check and a giant stride Whole week falling off my mind

[Chorus] ‘Cause a bad day diving Is better than a good day workin’ Give me leaks in my gear And the boat still rockin’ (hey!) I’d trade every deadline For a fogged-up mask and sand in my shirt Yeah a bad day diving Is better than a good day at work

[Verse 2] First drop, current’s kinda wild Visibility’s just a haze Lose a fin in the seagrass Camera jammed, no rays today Bump my tank on the ladder Get a cramp halfway to the line But I’m laughing in my regulator I’m still doing fine

[Pre-Chorus] Little air left in my tank Boat lunch in a paper bag Sunburn on my silly face But I’d never wanna trade this place

[Chorus] ‘Cause a bad day diving Is better than a good day workin’ Give me rain on the deck And the anchor jerkin’ (oh yeah) I’d trade every meeting For a sketchy entry and a tangled shirt Yeah a bad day diving Is better than a good day at work

[Bridge] Let ‘em have their suits and chairs I’ve got seagrass in my hair Let ‘em chase that coffee line I’m just chasing one more dive Even when it all goes wrong I’m still humming this stupid song (sing it!) Everybody on the boat, one time

[Chorus] ‘Cause a bad day diving Is better than a good day workin’ Give me waves in my face And the engine hurtin’ (hey!) I’d trade every inbox For a crooked logbook and a ripped old shirt Yeah a bad day diving Is better than a good day at work Yeah a bad day diving Is better than a good day at work
