This song was never recorded, and it's too bad because the concept is universal, it's a
hard rocker, the chorus is very catchy and it's an outright smash hit song.

I Work for a Jerk

I wake up every morning when it's too dark to see
Before I go to work, I need a coffee I.V. !
And then it's up in the morning in the long red snake
I think about my boss and my neck begins to ache
He works from 5 to 9 instead of 9 to 5
Working for the man's like being buried alive

Do you work for a jerk?             Yeah, I work for a jerk
Does he ride your case?              He blows smoke in my face
Are there boots to lick?              I gotta work when I'm sick
He thinks he's Captain Kirk       I said I work for a jerk!

He's got a Hitler mustache, hair slicked down tight
He's a little Napoleon with an overbite
All day memo's about this, memo's about that
The man's about as serious as a heart attack

Do you work for a jerk?             Yeah, I work for a jerk
Does he ride your case?              He blows smoke in my face
Are there boots to lick?              I gotta work when I'm sick
He thinks he's Captain Kirk       I said I work for a jerk!

Commentary:

I think about 99% of the working population can identify with this song! Who hasn't had this kind of job experience at least one time in their life? Some really good lines here and some really good rhymes too. The coffee I.V., the long red snake (a traffic jam in the dark), my Captain Kirk rhyme, and one of my favorite sayings that I use quite a lot about myself - "I'm as serious as a heart attack!"
