Corporate Nightmare Song Lyrics by Saturday Night Live

2019

(Spoken Intro)
[TED]
Hey, Dylan, take the lip ring out. It's against company policy
[NATE]
This one's goin' out to all the corporate drones out there!
[TINA]
Workin' for the man, makin' other people rich
[CASPER]
Slave to the almighty dollar
[DYLAN]
You know who you are. Listen up!
(Hook)
Mom and Dad said, "Go get a job!"
[TINA]
Go work real hard, go punch a clock
[NATE]
Climb the corporate ladder straight to the top
[CASPER]
Pay your dues; someday, you'll be the boss
[DYLAN]
But white-collar life don't work, you see
[TINA]
'Cause I ain't no corporate worker bee
[NATE]
Everybody in the house who feel like me
[DYLAN, TINA, NATE, AND CASPER]
Get up on your feet and scream
(Song)
Take this job and shove it up your—
I will never be
Part of this machine
Corporate society
You can't hold me back
With a paycheck
This job can kiss my a--
(Spoken)
[TED]
Hey, Tina, great work on that compete analysis
[TINA]
Oh, thank you
[TED]
You should think about the management training program. We could use someone like you on the 12th floor
[TINA]
Wow. I, I will. Thank you, sir
[TED]
(Great work)
(Training program)
(Hook)
[DYLAN]
Boss man sit around on his ass all day
[TINA]
Doin' real good work for the compan-aay
[NATE]
He don't know what's up
[TINA]
But he actually does, though
So let's not be unfair to Ted, yo
[DYLAN]
But the hours
[TINA]
Are good
[NATE]
And the pay
[TINA]
Is generous
[CASPER]
Corporate culture is straight-up venomous
[TINA]
But our benefits
(Spoken)
Oh, sorry, one second. I just gotta make sure I RSVP for this meeting. Yep, I knew it. And—sweet. Thanks, guys
(Hook)
[NATE]
'Cause the people at this place
[TINA]
Are my best friends
[DYLAN, NATE, AND CASPER]
And when it comes to the boss
[TINA]
He's my best friend
(Song)
[DYLAN, NATE, AND CASPER]
Take this job and shove it up your—
(Spoken)
[TED]
Tina, Nate, Casper? You got a sec?
[CASPER]
Yeah, absolutely. Yeah
[NATE]
Sure thing, Ted
(Song)
[DYLAN]
I will never go
Down the corporate road
Capitalistic nightmare
Blah blah blah blah blah
Something blah blah blah
(Spoken)
The hell is that all about?
[CASPER]
So…?
[TINA]
Ted asked us if we would pitch on the digital campaign
[NATE]
Yeah, it's pretty cool, actually
[CASPER]
Yeah, it's really nice that Ted is looking at ideas internally
(Hook)
[DYLAN]
You corporate drones in your suits and ties
The boss says "Jump"; you say, "How high?"
(Spoken)
[TINA]
Ted wants you to work on it, too
(Hook)
[DYLAN]
Let's dive right in, put our heads together
[NATE]
Blue sky the whole thing, make the good ideas better
[TINA]
Let's order food
[CASPER]
Stay here all night
[NATE]
If we're pitching to Ted
[TINA AND DYLAN]
It's gotta be tight
[DYLAN]
We do this right, who knows where we could go?
[TINA]
Dana is retiring
[DYLAN, NATE, AND CASPER]
She'll need to be replaced, yo
[NATE]
One of us could get her job, management position
[CASPER]
Down the road, we could be runnin' this division
[DYLAN]
First we crush this presentation
[NATE]
No chokin'
[TINA]
Got our foot in the door
[DYLAN, TINA, NATE, AND CASPER]
Now let's kick it open
(Spoken Outro)
[TINA]
Work hard, good things'll come
[NATE]
That's just how it is, people!
[TED]
Dylan, lip ring
[DYLAN]
Ah, sorry, Mr. Abbott
[TED]
Call me Ted
