Piano Man

I haven't done this in a while... ever on this blog, so here goes:

This one's for all the sexy people in the house!

(To the tune of Offspring's eternally good "Self Esteem")

I had an interview, tenth one today
And practiced all the things I had to say
But got passed over
worked my last nerve
went to my cubicle, cried til it hurt.
I feel like I'm being used
That's okay cause I've got no self esteem

I work hard deep into the night
I stop at 2 then I turn out the light
And this rejection's got me so low
I'd quit tomorrow but I can't seem to go.

When we do lunch and the boss rolls some heads
then she wonders why she doesn't have friends
We laugh out loud and bang on our knees
She tells us slackers to pull up our end
Well I guess we should pick up more elves
To magic the work she gave us today.


The more you suffer
The less it shows you really work.
Right?
(Yeah yeah yeah)

Now I'll relate this a little bit
That happens more than I'd like to admit
Five p.m. and she knocks on my door
Past deadline and she's gonna roar.

Now I know I gotta kiss feet
So my family doesn't live on the street
I may be hosed
But I'm not a feeb
I'm just a worker with no self esteem.

The Offspring. I loved them when I worked at the department.

Funny how it always seemed to be at that particular place on that album where the lead singer screams out a detailed obscenity (different track, same album) when I started up my car after a long day at work....when Psycho Sarge could hear it. Somehow that stereo volume was always about 11 then. Heh. :)

That and "911 is a Joke" were personal faves back then.
