I accepted the exciting chance
almost in a trance
to have this one last dance
I lifted my chin with pride
because this will be my last ride
with all the opportunities being wide
I'd get to work with the very best
while saying no to all the rest
oh have I been blessed
I moved to a city near the water
not thinking it'd be a sl------r
or raises would be by the quater
I worked on what customers wanted
while good things were just flaunted
leaving me feeling taunted
I found it's not my work that matters
but a contest between chatters
all the rest just splatters
I have walked and talked with my boss
but I'm even more at a loss
after he put on all the gloss
I have made my decision
after finally catching a glimpse his vision
before he can make another incision
It may be what he is craving
he's certainly been raving
but I'll be the one waving
