lyrics

Oh my job
I hope you can find me now
I'll sit and broadcast my location all day
All I got in my pocket
Is a folded up resume
Mighty flimsy, some would say

Oh my job
I won't criticize you now
I'll sit 'n' take it like a man who gets paid
If it's just a money matter
Doesn't matter how the money gets made
I could be out there selling lemonade

Way back in May
I blew in like a breeze
Grabbed a hold of the brass ring and
Took a squeeze
Then I heard the four winds blow
And I left that job a-standing in the row

But that was then
And now I know this is now
And I hope my job locates me soon
You can find me anytime
By the silvery light of the cartoons
Shining in my living room
