Lyrics

You might think self-employment is a great way to work
But self employment's harder when your boss can be a jerk
How come I just pretend to listen to the things I say
Why do I insist on treating me this way

I don't give myself enough time off, and I do take my own flack
And sometimes I make fun of myself behind my back
And then just when I thought I had a shot at real advancement
I took myself to court for sexual harassment

I should have known as much, that there could be no chance
To keep something secret like an office romance
I was so humiliated, I lost a lot of face
I had to brown nose myself just to get a parking space

I thought about probation as the proper way to handle it
But employee morale would plummet with the fallout from the scandal
So now we've turned all that around, I think we're in the clear
At looks like there's a shot I'll get employee of the year
