The Petty Life of an Administrator

You don’t know what you’re doing
You don’t know what you’re doing
But this roll it means nothing
This whole profession means nothing

Clicked out of existence
No one would care
Except your biros and stapler
Would be going spare
Even though you wrote your name in tip-ex
I’d scratch it off
And use 2 staplers as make shift crocodile puppets

You don’t know what you’re doing
You don’t know what you’re doing
But this roll means nothing
And I’ve had my fill of facebook

Admin changes the world
From the photocopy assistants
To the PM’s pa

Microsoft office
Changes this world
Call me a taxi. I’m leaving

So you sit at your desk
Eating baguette du monde
With a bow tie you think you look suave
And when you address me
You avert your gawp
I didn’t realise I was the 21st century medusa

Admin changes the world
From the military defence accountant
To the zoo PR exec

Admin changes the world
From the NHS pamphlets
To the database tech

Admin changes the world
But not constructively.

Credit crunch budget
Change this world
Call me a taxi. I’m leaving.
