The Lyrics
Ya know when its been a long day at work and you just want to go home...
The problem is i hate the sight of everyone i see
The answer is easy if you Take aggression That easly
I'd like to help but i really wish you'd go away from me
There must be fifty ways To annoy a customer
She said "do you work here" I didnt want to answer her
Furthermore, i dream shed be in the here after
But I'll repeat myself
At the risk of being rude
There must be fifty ways
To Irritate a customer
Fifty ways to annoy a customer
CHORUS:
Just go on a break, Jake
Just sneeze on them, Glen
You dont need to care, clair
Just ignor them please
Just be rude, dude
You dont even need to be in a Mood
Just cut them off, Boff
And run away free
Just Hind in the back, Jack
Dont answer the Phone, Joan
Just Rant and Rave, Dave
Just Ignor them please
Pretend you dont know, Flow
Arrigance is the way to go
Just act hazy, Dazzy
and run way free
She said can you help me, i said no get away from me
She asked who can help me, i said someone unwillingly
She had a grin, her teeth where false it really showed
And all i can think about is her lipstick that did glow
She asked me questions i didnt know the answer straight away
I told her to shut it and go if she wasnt going to pay
And then she swore at me with profanity ive never heard
There must be fifty ways
To annoy a customer
Fifty ways to annoy a customer
CHORUS:
Just go on a break, Jake
Just sneeze on them, Glen
You dont need to care, clair
Just ignor them please
Just be rude, dude
You dont even need to be in a Mood
Just cut them off, Boff
And run away free
Just Hind in the back, Jack
Dont answer the Phone, Joan
Just Rant and Rave, Dave
Just Ignor them please
Prentend you dont know, Flow
Arrigance is the way to go
Just act hazy, Dazzy
and run way free
The answer is easy if you Take aggression That easly
I'd like to help but i really wish you'd go away from me
There must be fifty ways To annoy a customer

Furthermore, i dream shed be in the here after

"Dont answer the Phone, Joan" made me smile.
I'm a compulsive phone answerer...it drives me NUTS when people let it ring...ESPECIALLY when I'm the one who's calling.

Only 50? As a former Sears serf, I can say... "Amateur!" But a professional-grade parody.
I thought this one came out in the seventies. ??? But this is one way cool parody. However, the pacing's off because "annoy a customer" contains more sylables than "leave your lover."
Great idea, some very funny lines; pacing was fairly hard to match in places, though.
Some good lines but, pacing was off a bit in places...455
I saw that there were no 4-5-5 votes yet (the above commentator says he voted that, but it apparently didn't register), so I made up for it.
