lyrics
You slid my badge across the desk at nine I saw your name on the rota line I was ten minutes late, you made it fine Never said a word, just saved my spine My Tim card buzzed by the fryer light You held my apron while I fixed it right In the break room, you kept it light Like nothing happened in the midday bite And I keep thinking, every shift I miss Who does that kind of thing like this? You never ask for a thank-you kiss You just nod once, then you dismiss You covered for me You covered for me You covered for me And never said a thing You covered for me You covered for me You covered for me Like it was nothing At the Dundas stop, my bus ran cold I came in late with my hoodie old You told the floor I was stuck outside Then passed me coffee by the side At closing time, when the lights went low You locked the till with a careful throw You wrote my hours on a yellow note Then left it face-down by my coat And I keep thinking, every shift I miss Who does that kind of thing like this? You never ask for a thank-you kiss You just nod once, then you dismiss You covered for me You covered for me You covered for me And never said a thing You covered for me You covered for me You covered for me Like it was nothing If I were you, I’d bring it up I’d want the credit, want the cup But you just shrug and grab your keys No speech, no scene, just basic ease So when the line gets long and mean I look for you in the stainless steel And there you are, by the milk crate stack Covering me, like you always have You covered for me You covered for me You covered for me And never said a thing You covered for me You covered for me You covered for me Like it was nothing
