lyrics

You really thought

You had it made

Time to settle down

And get steady pay

It didn’t turn out that way

The economy’s going south

When you suddenly found

You got

Shitcanned

In the hardest way

That they don’t want you now

So they turned around and

Told you to take a hike

Though you tried real hard

To be well liked

You got

Shitcanned

You didn’t have a clue

And now you’re wondering

What you’re gonna do

Jumped through hoops

Just like a dog

You even snitched

Some people off

Now you know

That you were wrong

You’re out on your ass

And you realize

You got shitcanned

For the bottom line

That made them decide

To kick ya to the curb

You got

Shitcanned

Your loyalty

For the company

Didn’t mean a thing

When the profit margin

Starts looking mean

Then it’s time

For you to leave

And get

Shitcanned

Just like him

He thought he’d retire

On the company dime

But then one day

Real life set in

And his happy ending

Was modified

To a tragedy

He didn’t see

That the powers that be

Don’t give a fuck

And he’s

Shitcanned

Just like her

She was a corporate pet

And now she’s got no job

Despite the fact

That for years

She slobbed the boss’s knob

Did whatever

She was told to do

Then one day they called

Her in

Just to tell her that she was through

And she got

Shitcanned

Just like you

When someday the company

Concludes that you are through

And deciding to

Eliminate your job

Is an idea they think is great

Don’t get too confident

Or feel secure

Cuz to them

You’re human resource manure

To get shitcanned
