**[Verse 1]** My boss comes in first thing in the morning “Everybody’s gotta work harder” Get some certificates, climb that ladder Find a good job, make your life look better Come on, man, I just wanna do my job You act like my whole life’s gonna drop One little mistake and you sound the alarm Like it’s some kind of serious crime Mind your own business, it’s my life Why are you so worried about mine? **[Pre-Chorus]** You say everything has to be perfect A life that’s nothing but work? Forget it What century are you living in? People are short, we can leave anytime **[Chorus]** Bad employee! Yeah, yeah, that’s me “Follow the rules!” Yeah, yeah, no thanks, you see There are tracks all over the world You’re only king inside this little room Bad employee! Yeah, yeah, that’s me Keep your perfect little world, let me be There’s more than one way to go I’ll find my own road when I’m ready to go **[Verse 2]** Better watch yourself, boss Your employees can rate you now Harassment, power trips, all that stuff One bad post and it’s spreading somehow Enough with those stories from the old days Clean up that mess on your desk I brought you tea, but where can I put it? There’s not even room for a single cup And when you’re done drinking, one little thing Clean it up yourself, okay? **[Pre-Chorus]** You say everything has to be perfect A life that’s nothing but work? Forget it What century are you living in? People are short, we can leave anytime **[Chorus]** Bad employee! Yeah, yeah, that’s me “Follow the rules!” Yeah, yeah, no thanks, you see There are tracks all over the world You’re only king inside this little room Bad employee! Yeah, yeah, that’s me Keep your perfect little world, let me be There’s more than one way to go I’ll find my own road when I’m ready to go **[Bridge]** I’m checking new jobs on my phone Like I’m shopping on Amazon The hourly pay keeps going up Looks like I’m moving on pretty soon Better enjoy your little kingdom While I’m still sitting here ’Cause when I find a better offer I’ll be saying goodbye, my dear
