Songs about hating your job


AD

Recommended Posts

Can you helpful skanks give me some suggestions of songs about hating your job, or loosely about work in a negative way, even just in the title?

So far I've got:

Take this job and shove it - Johnny Paycheque

Pumping for the man - Ween

Welcome to the working week - costello

I hate mondays - geldof

working fulltime - constantines

Let's work together - canned heat

Couldya help me out ya think?

zanks a bunch

last night i came in from work in a foul mood, not at all feeling like i had gotten my brain back from my employer in its' original state. to make myself feel better about sbd's vanishing from the archive, i put on one of the many that i had happily squirreled away on my hd (1985-04-07) and the first tuine i got was Day Job...instantly felt a bit better about the whole proposition :)

i don't know if Day Job counts as a "hate your job" song or not...seems like it to me...

Brown Shoes Don't Make It

~ Zappa

Be a plumber

He’s a bummer

He’s a bummer every summer

Be a loyal plastic robot

For a world that doesn’t care

That’s right

Smile at every ugly

Shine on your shoes and cut your hair

Be a jerk - go to work

Be a jerk - go to work

Be a jerk - go to work

Be a jerk - go to work

Do your job, and do it right

Life’s a ball

Tv tonight

Do you love it

Do you hate it

There it is

The way you made it

I so DREAM of Bush coming back to my work so I can get fired in GLORIOUS style.

Howler: If that ever happens, my offer from last time still stands... ;)

AD --you gonna assemble and burn this treasure trove for those who request it?

No, but that's a great idea...... There's a pretty solid chance you folks just made a playlist for a radio show... I will post more details when I have them.

Thanks for all the suggestions!
