No, nothing to do with Matt Drudge. This one actually has some truth to it.
(guitar intro)
(piano comes in)
As I type along
I wonder
what went wrong
with this job
where pay is not so strong.
And as I ticker on
computer
the things I wish I'm doing
they all are far along.
I'm a-typing on my job!
Coffee's spilling, I'm such a slob!
Wishing I were there with you
with your love oh-so-true
and I wonder
I wah-wah-wah-wah-wonder
why
why-why-why-why-why
we cannot play
and I wonder
how I'll get away-yay...
Sit here and drudge away
I dru-dru-dru-dru
drudge away.
(bridge... I think the instrument's called a "mellotron")
I'm a-typing on my job!
Coffee's spilling, I'm such a slob!
Wishing I were there with you
with your love oh-so-true
and I wonder
I wah-wah-wah-wah-wonder
why
why-why-why-why-why
we cannot play
and I wonder
how I'll get away-yay...
Sit here and drudge away
I dru-dru-dru-dru
drudge away.
I dru-dru-dru-dru
drudge away.
I dru-dru-dru-dru
drudge away.
I dru-dru-dru-dru
drudge away.
(repeat until fade, or until your next coffee spill)

pretty much describes most of my days...5s
I think we all can relate. Nice work 555. PS: BTW, gotta wonder about the intelligence of someone who dings ya with a 1 without explaining why, eh? Must be jealous. Ya did a good job.
Those who give ones usually don't explain, however I like nearly ever Pacholek song I read, so I joined in with the 5s
What alvin said... and may you Shannon-dough-a river of bucks from this parody... too bad ya can't spend these Fives.
This one's a real instant classic.
