lyrics

(an elevator dings)
Going down. For the last time.
(ow!)

One cardboard box, one dying fern
One stapler I will not return
Five years of let's just circle back
I'm circling out the exit, Jack
(bye bye!)

I dropped my lanyard on the floor
And moonwalked out the revolving door
(one more time!)

I don't work here anymore
(he don't work here anymore!)
I don't work here anymore
Tell the printer the war is over
I don't work here anymore
Sing it down to the second floor
I don't work here anymore
(no more, no more, no more!)

Susan hugged the dying fern
I told her, Susan, live and learn
The card went round: we'll miss you, miss—
sorry, quick one — who is this?
(who is this?!)

I ate my lunch at half past ten
Just because. And then again.
(freedom tastes like crisps!)

I don't work here anymore
(he don't work here anymore!)
I don't work here anymore
Tell the printer the war is over
I don't work here anymore
Sing it down to the second floor
I don't work here anymore
(no more, no more, no more!)

What if money? What if rent?
(shh shh shh)
I'll think about it Monday. No —
I'm free. I'm scared. It's excellent.
(strings swell back in)

I don't work here anymore
(he don't work here anymore!)
I don't work here anymore
I don't work here anymore
I don't work here anymore
(no more, no more, no more!)

(he don't work here!)
Tell payroll I said something nice
(he don't work here anymore!)
