- Swaggering to the bar, I grab the 5th of Tullimore Dew, pull the cork,
- and drink about half of the bottle, and assume the poetry position...
-
-
- Here I sit, earning my pay,
- doing nothing, for $83 a day;
- My boss' idea, she seems to know,
- that if this keeps up I'll pick up and blow.
-
- She's got something coming, it happens this noon -
- I've called in my union, they're bring their goons
- there'll be a discussion, a black-tinted row,
- and before it's all over, they'll be taking their bows
-
- For taking her down a large notch or two! See
- What's been happening is naught but a political stew.
- I had a job audit, and won that battle, but
- the results have been nothing but hassle.
-
- Rules subverted, edicts ignored,
- "Straighten her out, boys - our member's bored!"
- the goons will be yelling, with law books drawn
- the yelling and screaming will run on 'till dawn!
-
- The blood will run under the conference room door,
- from off of the table, and onto the floor
- as she finds out today that that position is mine,
- along with 2 years back wages, a $40,000 fine!
-
- See, she corrupted someone who knew
- that what she was doing was wrong, but too
- easy to cover their tracks from
- employees who didn't bother to cover their backs.
-
- Another feature that I'm sure you'll all like,
- is when she decides to just take a hike,
- when she discovers that a tape recorder I've brought
- to make all of her lies come to naught.
-
- Notes of these meetings are so easily misplaced,
- that the thoughts of all involved end up in space,
- to on media magnetic I'll keep
- the evidence of what's said by the lying creep.
-
- I sit here, this rhyme is done,
- and sharing it with you has been such fun.
- I'll write another when the battle is through,
- but until then I'll bit you adieu.
