| Original Song Title: | "Take My Breath Away" |
| Original Performer: | Berlin |
| Parody Song Title: | "Take My Job Away" |
| Parody Written by: | Bob Emmet/Project Sisyphus |
Truly, an anthem for our times.
Watching all the want ads, padding out my resume
Wishin’ I had got that discount online MBA
Rumor mill is turning, labor’s cheaper in Norway
Lawyers filing motions, hoping they can find some way (to)
Take my job away...
(I’m) such a workaholic—how could they send my job offshore?
Always in by ten, sometimes I stayed as late as four
Except for four-day weekends and random ethnic holidays
Now some dude named “Gunnar” got my manager to say:
Take my job away...
Umlaut-guy won’t have my knowledge
of YouTube video
Or my B.S. from that classy college
where they filmed “Don’t Tase Me, Bro”
And I taught the CEO
Super Mario™
Take my job away...
Security escorts me out so I don’t make a scene
Stuffed my clothes with pens, some post-its and a fax machine
Ate up all the donuts, sued for months of severance pay
Prayin’ I get sick, ‘cause medical’s on them ‘till May
Take my job away
Take my job away...
