I Was Fired Lyrics by Adam Sandler

2019

[Verse 1: Adam Sandler]
I was fired
I was fired
I was fired, so sad to tell
Well, I never saw it coming
I got fired from SNL
Between seasons I heard a nasty rumor
That I was getting the sack
I tried to call Lorne Michaels
But he never called me back
[Spoken: Adam Sandler]
I'm joking, I'm joking
He called me, he called me
[Verse 2: Adam Sandler]
I guess NBC had enough of crazy spoon head
And the songs I sang on the news
Maybe they were sick of canteen boy
But I think they just hate the jews
I was fired
Not rehired
Well it made me sad and blue
I told my boy Chris Farley I got fired and he said
"SANDMAN, THEY FIRED MY ASS TOO!"
[Spoken: Adam Sandler and Chris Rock]
Chris Rock is here... Chris Rock!
Hey baby! I love ya!
Hey man, how's it going?
We- we were on the show together right?
Yeah, yeah. Same time! We got t- the same day
That's right. That's right
Why did you ever leave the show? I don't understand that
Why did I ever leave the show? Well, Adam...
[Verse 3: Chris Rock]
I got fired
I was fired
I was fired by NBC
Then I went on in Living Color
Three weeks later they took it off TV
[Spoken: Adam Sandler and Pete Davidson]
It's okay, okay
You hang in there
You keep going after your dream
Hey, man! What's up?
How are you doing?
How are you doing, pal?
[Verse 4: Pete Davidson]
I was fired
I was fire-
[Spoken: Adam Sandler and Pete Davidson]
Hey, hang on. No no. Pete, you weren't fired
I wasn't? How's that even possible?
I don't know, but be patient because it's coming soon
[Verse 5: Adam Sandler]
Well it broke my heart to pieces
Cause SNL was my home
Where could I do my silly voices now?
I never felt so alone
Yeah, I was fired
I was fired
NBC said that I was done
Then I made over 4 billion dollars at the box office
So I guess you could say I won
So I was fired
But tonight I'm rehired
And I'm the happiest man alive
Cause it feels so good to be back with you where it all began for me
Right here on Saturday Night Live
