Boring Meeting

Original Song: "Manic Monday" by the Bangles

Five o'clock on Wednesday
And I'm stuck in a crowded conference room
We're all watching our director
As he rambles on all afternoon
And I want to leave
But then I guess I just won't get paid
These are the days
When you wish your fortune's already made

It's just another boring meeting
With not enough seating
It's such a beating
I wish it was completing
It's just another boring meeting

Showing us another slide
Got to be his ninety-eighth
And if I had a Vivarin
I still couldn't keep me awake
'Cause he drags on so long
And I start to slip right out of my chair
Blame it on the heat
Generated by all the hot air

It's just another boring meeting
And he keeps repeating
We're competing
Competitors are cheating
It's just another boring meeting

All of the lights
Are down so PowerPoint will show up good
On the wall
Doesn't it matter
That the darkness and the heat combine
To drain us all
He tells us in his boardroom voice
Our new products will offer real choice
Time goes so slow
When he's droning on

It's just another boring meeting
I wish it was fleeting
It's such a beating
I'd like to be retreating
It's just another boring meeting

[Repeat and fade to a chorus of snores]
