This is a song I wrote, when inspired by boredom, and a hate for the MAN. It can be sung in any fashion I suppose, but I like the way it sounds when done like a rendition of the Beverly Hillbillies theme song.

Let me tell you a story about a man named Rich
Who made himself a living being everbody's bitch
Showed up to work and always on time
His tie so straight and his hair lookin fine
Had horned-rimmed glasses of the thickest disposition
And never complained about his menial position
Strided into his cubicle, without the slightest of resistance
Gave not a thought to his meaningless existence
Rainbows and lollipops
Golden rays of sun
Can't wait to wake up
Cause work is so much fun
Fairy-dust and pixie-sticks
The chorus is almost done
Can't wait to wake up
Cause work is so much fun
Well, he took in the sight of his capitalist prison
And booted up his computer, which was in great need of fixin
He typed away in his swivel-bound chair
When up from behind him, loomed a man with wispy hair
His shoulder was bound in a cold, mechanical grip
From his porcelain cup, the bossman took a sip
"In my office," were the words, paired with a leer
That boomed from his voice-box, the words that Richard feared
Rainbows and lollipops
Golden rays of sun
Can't wait to wake up
Cause work is so much fun
Fairy-dust and pixie-sticks
The chorus is almost done
Can't wait to wake up
Cause work is so much fun
Well, he walked into a room, at least three times as big
But saw no evidence of a wife, or happy kid
He was commanded to sit in a chair, absent of swivel
As he suffered his boss's inane drivel
The wispy haired devil wasn't pleased
And Richard felt a nasty buckle in his knees
The prophetic speech ended with the word, "fired"
So Richard stood, took out his polished pistol, and fired
Rainbows and lollipops
Golden rays of sun
Can't wait to wake up
Cause work is so much fun
Fairy-dust and pixie-sticks
The song is almost done
Can't wait to wake up
Cause work is so much fun
Cause work is so much fun
Cause work is so much fun
Cause work is so much fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun
