I Lost My Job Again
Pigeon John

1st Verse:


Woke up in the morning with my manager yelling about

Late rent and debt with the threat of her throwing me out

I promise with a sweat bead hanging that I would pay

As soon as I get a job so so I can stay

She said I had 2 weeks and its coming up quickly

Butt naked in the kitchen looking through la Weekly

Searching in the Want Ads frantically

So something similiar to fit my personality

And then boom that's when I saw it

A jewelry shop at Macy's

I can birdwatch and make cash at the same place G

Its was cool so I signed up

Slanging Swatch watches to all the people lined up

That's when they moved me to the Diamond Department

And apllied preasure to sell a larger margian

I tried my best but I always came up short

A diamond ring saleman just wasn't my sport

There was more preasure so I had to sale something

Saw a girl in the front trying to decide want did she want

I said Girl you need a ring started saleing that thing

Got excited and straight forgot the bring

The price tag to my face the ring was 3 grand

And it was looking lovely on her pretty left hand

She bought for half cause I thought the tag said so

But I read it wrong noticed when she walked out the door

I sang


Chorus:


Oh my God I lost my job again

I got fired on the spot yo when will it ever end? (2x)


2nd Verse:


Walking home from Macy's had to dry my tears

Cause I only had 1 week to pay the rent it was clear

I had to get another gig quick asking at church

Is anyone hiring? and it worked

I got a job in downtown as a stock clerk

Shelving and alphabetizing files like a doctor

On a patient but my boss wasn't playing with time

Brother wanted his files then now and future in line

And you know I'm not good under preasure

I act like Radio and Rain Man together

Started messing up loosing important files and such

And finding them too late when in a crutch

My boss brought me his office for a little pep talk

John you can do it if you don't talk but walk

I said That's right but I knew I was wrong

I was so scared and behind these throngs of files

They could've been anywhere in the aisles

Under the desks behind the printers in piles

And it way past due I turned my files in last

Not good enough I felt my job just pass

And then I sang


Chorus:


Oh my God I lost my job again

I got fired on the spot yo when will it ever end? (2x)


Outro:


You're gonna be ok my little boy

Just shake shake it off and go home (4x)
