Song: Put my T-Shirt On
Album: TP-3 Reloaded
In this song it's clearly morning, and R., as usual, is horny. After all, he probably only did it pretty much all night long with this girl, and now he's gotta make up for lost time during the day.The only problem is, work. R. Kelly is so turned on by this lady that he's "tempted to call in sick an stay home." But then, will he lose his job?
I don't know, call me bitter from MY long day at work, but in this particular scene I lose a little patience with R. Of course you're not gonna lose your job, stupid. Your job is being sexy, sexing women and then singing about it, which is exactly what you're doing right now. In fact, far from calling in sick, you're bringing your work home with you, every single day, and working from home pretty much all night long.
You do your work in restaurants, even after they're closed. You do it by the lawnmower. You even bring your work with you to alcoholics' conventions. In many ways, you're the ultimate workaholic. So relax, R. Stop worrying that you're going to lose your job and just go DO your job. Which for you means go do this woman.

Man, this kinda makes you wonder...Has R. ever HAD a real job? Do you think before he was a superstar he was flipping burgers or filing things or designing buildings?
I can't really picture him holding down a job, for EXACTLY the reasons he mentions here. That he would get in late (b/c he was doin it), take long lunch breaks (to do it) and leave early (to do it some more). They don't look highly on that kind of thing at Burger King or McKeener & Associates or where ever it is that he might have worked.
From Wikipedia:
"Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Kelly was into music at an early age. Kelly's mother, Joanne Kelly, was a singer herself and performed in a group called Six Pack. Kelly states that it was she who heavily influenced his interest in music early on. As a teenager, Kelly began street performing before he eventually formed a group with his friend Marc McWilliams. In 1989, Kelly and McWilliams formed the group MGM (Musically Gifted Men)."
So yeah. It would appear that R., really, has never had a job besides singing. I mean, MGM got huge when he was like 21.
In somewhat related news, I had a dream last night involving canoeing, Lost, Dwight Schrute from the Office and this blog.
The man sitting next to R. Kelly on the airplane:
What do you do?
R. Kelly:
I have sex a lot.
The man:
No, I mean what do you do for a living.
R. Kelly:
I sing about sex a lot. You?
The man:
Oh. That sounds nice. I'm in consulting.
What was the dream???
