The Lyrics
Its all the same, only the company changed
Everyday it seems like I'm not getting paid
Another place where the cubicles are so small
I deal with rush hour traffic just to get to work
Chorus:
I'm an accountant, in a rolling chair I ride
I'm wanted for overtime
Wanted for overtime
Sometimes I sweep, sometimes its not for days
And the dust I sweep always goes away
Sometimes you tell the day
By the Excel that you save.
And times when all you do is think
Chorus:
I'm an accountant, in a rolling chair I ride
I'm wanted for overtime
Wanted for overtime
I walk these halls
A stapler in my hand
Ive been on all the floors, still I am in a cubicle
Ive seen a million papers and Ive stamped them all
I'm an accountant, in a rolling chair I ride
I'm wanted for overtime
I'm an accountant, the boss ain't on my side
I'm wanted for overtime
Wanted for overtime
Everyday it seems like I'm not getting paid
Another place where the cubicles are so small
I deal with rush hour traffic just to get to work
Chorus:
I'm an accountant, in a rolling chair I ride
I'm wanted for overtime
Wanted for overtime
Sometimes I sweep, sometimes its not for days
And the dust I sweep always goes away
Sometimes you tell the day
By the Excel that you save.
And times when all you do is think
Chorus:
I'm an accountant, in a rolling chair I ride
I'm wanted for overtime
Wanted for overtime
I walk these halls
A stapler in my hand
Ive been on all the floors, still I am in a cubicle
Ive seen a million papers and Ive stamped them all
I'm an accountant, in a rolling chair I ride
I'm wanted for overtime
I'm an accountant, the boss ain't on my side
I'm wanted for overtime
Wanted for overtime
