Since I'm job-hunting, and since I've enjoyed the previous rounds of this game so much --- how about songs about work? (Or job, etc.) RICHARD, I'm hoping it's okay to start a new round, you usually start them for us.
Thanks,

Woo hoo, I enjoy this game too. Thing is, I can remember the song line for whatever topic is up, but I have to go search for the name! He hee.
Takin' Care Of Business by Bachman-Turner Overdrive
You get up every morning
From your alarm clock's warning
Take the 8:15 into the city
There's a whistle up above
And people pushin', people shovin'
And the girls who try to look pretty
And if your train's on time
You can get to work by nine
And start your slaving job to get your pay
If you ever get annoyed
Look at me I'm self-employed
I love to work at nothing all day
And I'll be...
Taking care of business every day
Taking care of business every way
I've been taking care of business, it's all mine
Taking care of business and working overtime
Work out
SOLO
If it were easy as fishin'
You could be a musician
If you could make sounds loud or mellow
Get a second-hand guitar
Chances are you'll go far
If you get in with the right bunch of fellows
People see you having fun
Just a-lying in the sun
Tell them that you like it this way
It's the work that we avoid
And we're all self-employed
We love to work at nothing all day
And we be...
Taking care of business every day
Taking care of business every way
I've been taking care of business, it's all mine
Taking care of business and working overtime
Take good care of my business
When I'm away, every day whoo!
SOLO

Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business.....
