Story behind the song
The vast majority of jobs in this song I've actually at one point or another held. This was one of my most creative songs from project 2, and one of my newest actual parodies. I've always wanted to write a song about the topic, just couldn't find a good song to do it to until Five for Fighting's "100 Years" came along.
Lyrics
I'm mowing lawns at the moment Charging about 15 dollars and I'm just dreaming saving my change for a car I'm bagging cans at the moment My income's better than ever and I just bought it Driving around in that new car Mowing lawns won't pull me through Bagging groceries, tried that too 15, There's always a curse, my job's the worst There's only so many Dead End Jobs to learn I'm at your door for the moment Pepperoni with a side of breadsticks I'm driving away babe Your neighbor's next on the list I'll check you in for a moment Give you a key to your hotel room Now chasing my tears with Mountain Dew Delivery was so bad too The hotel gave me the flu and then I quit a job again 15 times I've left and gone, 15 There's always a curse, my jobs the worst There's only so many dead end jobs to learn Check Cashing's alright We ripped off a guy And that job was gone The pool store wasn't too long now I am OK, I'm moving on I'm an escort for a moment I'll drop my drawers for a hundred and I'm still dreaming Now hopping for another car 15 jobs I've tried to do Even tried to shovel poo Convenience store I'm on my way Got a new job today. . . Ooohh hooo oooh Ooohh hooo oooh Ooohh hooo oooh hooo hoo hoooooooo Theater I'm Sick of you I can't stand no more fast food Theme Parks, There's Always a curse my job's the worst When You've only got a hundred jobs to quit
