The Lyrics
For the Dilbert crowd. (And some people may know who Scott Adams used to work for and got all his inspiration from)
I know I must perspire till the day that I retire
Or clutch my chest and collapse
And if I somehow last I'll still have memories that blast
Me when I'm taking my naps
Knowing you for years I've learned
That some people get older but not wiser
But now he's gone and wrecked my brain
I work for one big stupid supervisor
There is nothing in his eyes except the BS and the lies
I've heard here every day
And though it's just a corporate line, he makes it mine
And holds me to it every day
It makes me want to heave because the man really believes
He's making more work get done
The paperwork and fluff never seems to be enough
I think I've made a ton
I dream at night, this torture fills my head
My face is red and I need a Budwiser
Cause now he's gone and wrecked my peace
I work for one big stupid supervisor
(instrumental of office equipment and wasted hours)
And now he's gone and wrecked my life
I work for one big stupid supervisor
My, my, Sir
New tie? Sir
Goodbye, Sir
Go die, Sir
Or clutch my chest and collapse
And if I somehow last I'll still have memories that blast
Me when I'm taking my naps
Knowing you for years I've learned
That some people get older but not wiser
But now he's gone and wrecked my brain
I work for one big stupid supervisor
There is nothing in his eyes except the BS and the lies
I've heard here every day
And though it's just a corporate line, he makes it mine
And holds me to it every day
It makes me want to heave because the man really believes
He's making more work get done
The paperwork and fluff never seems to be enough
I think I've made a ton
I dream at night, this torture fills my head
My face is red and I need a Budwiser
Cause now he's gone and wrecked my peace
I work for one big stupid supervisor
(instrumental of office equipment and wasted hours)
And now he's gone and wrecked my life
I work for one big stupid supervisor
My, my, Sir
New tie? Sir
Goodbye, Sir
Go die, Sir
New stuff coming.

I am a major Dilbert fan.
THE PROBLEM
Dilbert to Pointy-Haired Boss: “Because the project’s understaffed we’re working 18 hour days but it’s still eight weeks behind schedule”.
THE ANALYSIS
Pointy-Haired Boss thinking, to himself: “Hmm…I can’t add people…I can’t change the date…I can’t ignore it…”
THE SOLUTION
Dilbert to Wally and Alice: “He wants hourly status reports until the situation improves.”

This is an accurate commentary of why American business has the problems it has today. Brilliant!
I know nothing about Dilbert, but I can sort of relate to this. Sort of. Second hand... :-)
Rick, you have done an excellent job of capturing the nameless, technologically-challenged, pointy-hair boss (and probably thousands of others around the country). If you have seen my avatar on the Messageboard, you know that I definitely appreciate Dilbert humor. And I know that Scott Adams spent nine years in cubicle 4S700R at the headquarters of Pacific Bell. Have you worked there too, Rick?
Yup. Pac Hell. (See my parody of "Michelle")
Hey Rick! Sure you don't work where I do?
