Substitute Teacher

[Verse 1]
Substitute teacher just for a day
Call me tomorrow, I'll be on my way
I'll take a drug test to prove I'm okay
Substitute teacher, when will I get paid?
Substitute teacher for a couple of days
Say that you're here when I call your name
Draw in your notebook, yeah, that's cool with me
Substitute teacher, no gig is for free

[Chorus]
Hey, Nicolas, are you free this week?
Hey, Nicolas, can you cover me?

[Verse 2]
Substitute teacher, P.E. coach for a day
Let's do some warm-ups before you can play
We can play football or capture the flag
A fight on the playground, timeout on the stands

[Chorus]
Hey, Nicolas, are you free this week?
Hey, Nicolas, can you cover me?
Hey, Nicolas, are you free this week? (Ah, ah-ah)
Hey, Nicolas, can you cover me? (Ah, ah-ah)

[Bridge]
Substitute teacher is out of a job
File unemployment and try to hang on
Living ain't easy with little to spare
Substitute teacher, yeah, livin' ain't fair
Oh

[Chorus]
Hey, Nicolas, are you free this week?
Hey, Nicolas, can you cover me?
Hey, Nicolas, are you free this week? (Ah, ah-ah)
Hey, Nicolas, can you cover me? (Ah, ah-ah)

[Outro]
(Ah, ah-ah)
(Ah, ah-ah)
(Ah, ah-ah)
(Ah, ah-ah)
