Hire Me - Dr Syntax

I’ll be interviewing you today, okay

So I’ve had a look at your CV (uh-huh)

Given your experience, in all honesty

Tell us how you might approach

Working for a company like ours

Honestly?

(yeah)

Uh, I’ll probably turn up early every day for my first week (first week)

Just to have you thinking im disturbingly keen (wow)

But the very next week, its unlikely I’ll be heard from

Or seen 'till at least 9:30 it seems (where is he?)

And why you telling me we need to work as a team?

I’ll be doddering around in a world of my dreams

And as for a dress code?

(what?) Hell no (no)

If you want me in a suit, then I’ll turn up in jeans

You might think that I’m half-witted

But when it comes to myself then im generally a harsh critic

I take on projects I can’t finish

And leave people hanging right at the last minute

(Uh, that sounds a bit unprofessional)

So what?

Would you prefer it if I said I’m like a robot?

I’m just a broke joke bloke with no job

Who can’t afford what his life costs

I’m begging you to hire me

I’m not civility personified

I’ve never even had a job I liked

But please!

Hire me

See I’m just trying to be the honest guy

Assuming that’s what every boss would like

Go on, hire me

Cause right now I’m in a rut

Down to my last tenner on the first of the month

Please, hire me

Go on, hire me

Anyone?

Hire me

I won’t increase your turn over

I’ll turn up hungover

Having spent the night on some sofa (oh shit)

It doesn’t matter if I’m drunk or sober

I’m in the same shirt with the funky aroma (phew)

You can try and call me but I won’t pick the phone up

I’ll be online chatting with some other stoners

Talking about how shit my job is (shit)

But at least I get paid just to sit and talk bollocks (bollocks)

I went to uni twice but that’s irrelevant

Did it for the hell of it (*laughing*)

Middle-class decadence

Wahey, I got some arts degrees

I was a, regular face on a whole lot of party scenes

My bank’s still charging me

For some money those cunts loaned me back in '03 (cunts!)

Please let me know you’re keen

Or just slip me some dough and I’ll leave

I’ll be so discrete!

I’m not civility personified

I’ve never even had a job I liked

But please!

Hire me

See I’m just trying to be the honest guy

Assuming that’s what every boss would like

Go on, hire me

Cause right now I’m in a rut

Down to my last tenner on the first of the month

Please, hire me

Go on, hire me

Anyone?

Yo, Goldman Sachs won’t

Hire me

The whole Civil Service won’t

Hire me

Hewlett Packard won’t

Hire me

The Evening Standard won’t

Hire me

HSBC won’t

Hire me

The SO 24 Hour garage won’t

Random House Publishing won’t

Hire me

(ugh)
