Jobs Mentioned In Songs That Would Be More Fun Than Mine
Mondays, you know?
I had a great weekend in which I had some news which meant some piece of dreaded and life-changing bad news was not going to come to pass. That’s all I can share, but yes, great weekend. Aaaaaaanyway, that naturally means which means Euuuch Monday.
In honour of this, here are some jobs from songs I’d gladly swap for my real one this morning.
Lineman for the county
Joker (or smoker, midnight toker, etc)
Paperback writer
Just a gigolo
A carpenter*
Rocket man
Guitar man
Demolition man
Henry the Eighth
King of pain
A music man (who comes from round your way)
The one and only
A rock
An island
*and you were my lady, obviously
OK, the last two aren’t necessarily jobs, and the one before that is just bollocks, but it would be cool to be an island. Or I’d settle for a peninsula. Something with a coastline, anyway.
This post is a little funny, but not as funny as me singing “My Name Is Prince” in my Cartman voice:
Mah name ith Printh!!! (uh) And ah am funk-eh! (yeah)
When ah go home! (uh) I thpank mah monk-eh!
See?
To Tennethee…
Cheers all
I’m gonna talk tho thecktheh…

Love the music-themed stuff.
And if I may add a job? The Dream Police.

Apologies… I just realized that I forgot to congratulate you on your good news from the weekend.

Thanks Leemer. More a lack of very bad news, but I’ll take what I can get.

Reading your post, I thought it said “which means Eunuch Monday”. That definitely would have been a bad start to the week…
