I like this song. It has a really nice vibe and groove. The lyrics and melody were both really nice to listen to. I liked the strong imagery in the lyrics. The chorus flowed really nicely. Nice work!

OVERTIME : Demo
Michael Saleta , Mary Elizabeth Hilliar & Samantha Blasko
VOCALS: Mary Elizabeth Hilliar

Clocked in but I’m checked out
Vacation days are running out
Workload makin’ my head spin
Feels like I’m drownin’ in the deep end
Can’t take another phone call
Coffee can’t clear this brain fog
Patience is runnin’ thin
Bossman got me workin late again

Chorus
Wish I was in my bikini
On the pink sand in Tahiti
(The) steel drums got me dancing
All night (all night)
Throwing back margaritas
Hangovers laced with amnesia
Its hard livin’ the island life, but
That’s my kind of Overtime

Clocked out, now I’m getting’ in
Same traffic jam on I-10
I just wanna go home and rest
But that house ain’t no oasis
Landlord beating down my door
Pile o’ dirty dishes from the night before
Dogs howlin’ til 2am
It’s gonna be a late one again

Chorus
Wish I was in my bikini
On the pink sand in Tahiti
(The) steel drums got me dancing
All night (all night)
Throwing back margaritas
Hangovers laced with amnesia
Its hard livin’ the island life, but
That’s my kind of Overtime

My overtime
Yeh that's my kinda Overtime
My overtime

Chorus
Wish I was in my bikini
On the pink sand in Tahiti
The steel drums got me dancing
All night (all night)
Throwing back margaritas
Hangovers laced with amnesia
Its hard livin’ the island life, but
That’s my kind of Overtime

My overtime, my overtime
That's my kinda Overtime
Yeh that's my kinda Overtime
My overtime, my overtime
That's my kinda Overtime
Yeh that's my kinda Overtime
