The Lyrics
In the 1997 animated movie of "Anastasia," the title character has survived the Russian Revolution (inaccurate by true historical standards) and goes out in search of the home she had, the family with whom she used to live, and any remnants of her royal status. This is a parody about just finding a job after graduating from college, not about her aforementioned search as was already indicated in the original song.
Gazing, y'all, upon my life as a student,
With a bachelor's degree,
I have heard it all. "Life is full of choices.
Even [the] best things aren't free.
If you're a bum, you'll go berserk."
Thus, I'm looking for some work.
Based upon my skills as a college student,
Would I get a job that pays?
I don't need something that pays me low wages.
I'll work 9 to 5 each day.
Don't frown on me. I'm not a jerk.
I'm just looking for some work.
Upon browsing
Through the Classifieds, I've found some options there.
Jobs a-plenty
I will never be complete until I get one.
I'll feel better once I get started working.
Who knows where this road may go?
What a world to see! I'll meet brand-new faces
And get my life on the ball.
Yes! Let this be the day!
Take my fears away!
I'll get started with my life
And find a jobat last!
