I heard this again today, and liked it just as much again. Refresh.

I heard this on the radio today, and decided this band deserves a wider audience.

Words and music by Scott Yoho ©2005 Auto Order Music (BMI)

You went to Kinko's Monday night.
The bully at the counter couldn't copy paper right.
He charged you double for his shoddy work.
To ring you up he needed help from two other clerks.

CHORUS: When you're so mad you don't know what to do,
Just sing this simple song that we will teach to you:
Everyone deserves a job that's challenging,
Although they may not ever get it right.
Everyone deserves a job that's challenging.
Be gentle when incompetence frustrates you tonight.

You voted for him and he won,
But his promises fulfilled now number less than one.
Perhaps his mind is not where it should be.
At least he's not the surgeon doing your vasectomy.

CHORUS: When you're so mad you don't know what to do,
Just sing this simple song that we will teach to you:
Everyone deserves a job that's challenging,
Although they may not ever get it right.
Some birds have to flap harder to leave the ground.
Be patient with the penguins you soar over in your flight.

I'm trying hard to write good songs.
I hope to craft a melody that makes you sing along.
I struggle to be clever with the words,
But I still fill my basement with CDs that no one's heard.

CHORUS: Even if our music hurts your ears,
Please humor us and sing this song that you've learned here:
Everyone deserves a job that's challenging,
Even if they never get it right.
Everyone deserves a job that's challenging.
Be gentle when incompetence frustrates you tonight. [3x]
