“All I wanna do is have some fun.”
This is your day off, do what Sheryl Crow says.
Whether you’re celebrating Labor Day in the U.S., scored a day out of the office or are taking a holiday – it’s time to make the most of it. Finally getting a day for yourself means you should celebrate… by doing no work – none of any kind. So if you get any to-dos, honey-dos or anything else that requires doing, we’ve got you covered, musically speaking.
Here are five lyrical rebuttals we rounded up just for you. See? You don’t even have to work for your smack talk. You’re welcome.
When your wife says the yard is a jungle:
“Welcome to the jungle, we've got fun-n-games
We got everything you want. Honey, we know the names.”
Welcome to the Jungle, Guns-n-Roses
When your buddies call you a slob for not doing the dishes (again):
“I don't give a damn 'bout my reputation, never said I wanted to improve my station
An' I'm only doin' good when I'm havin' fun, an' I don't have to please no one”
Bad Reputation, The Dragons
When you are accused of being lazy:
“Imma do the things that I wanna do
I ain't got a thing to prove to you”
Pork and Beans, Weezer
When you can’t tune out the nagging:
"Oh you're so condescending; your gall is never ending
We don't want nothin', not a thing from you…
Oh we're not gonna take it anymore”
We’re Not Gonna Take It, Twisted Sister
When asked why you aren’t doing any work:
“Today I don't feel like doing anything, I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like picking up my phone, so leave a message at the tone
‘Cause today I swear I'm not doing anything”
The Lazy Song, Bruno Mars

Get pumped when it’s time to head back into the office:
If your train's on time, you can get to work by nine
And start your slaving job to get your pay
Taking care of business (every day)
Taking care of business (every way)…
Mercy
Takin’ Care of Business, Bachmann-Turner Overdrive
