Working
Working
Don’t like working
‘Cause it’s really such a bore.
Don’t like meeting deadlines,
‘Cause they’re really such a chore.
Don’t like attending meetings all day long,
Since you just sit and talk for hours in a stuffy, dark room.
Don’t like pitching in and helping others with their tasks,
When I could be outside smelling the spring flowers bloom.
Don’t like having a boss
Since they’re always nitpicking and in your face.
Don’t like following a dress code
And having to wear a tie and carry a briefcase.
Don’t like working overtime,
Since working past five I definitely deplore.
Don’t like dealing with people since they can be quite annoying,
Especially when they ask silly questions that I would much prefer to ignore.
So now that my interview is over and I’ve had my say,
Do I start the job tomorrow or today?
