Dudes have this thing where they get higher but just never better
Promoted on mediocrity
While their vainglory works the old-boy’s club, all of the people
they’ve shafted shine their resumes

They should not be left to their own devices
They come with prices and vices
We end up in crisis (of the HR kind)
Staff end up screaming and grieving
There’s no end to their leaving
‘Cause they got tired of that scheming
(and misogyny)

It’s you, hi, you’re the problem, it’s you
On Teams Chat, everybody agrees
You’ll throw your staff under the bus without a hesitation
It must be refreshing, always thinking you’ve got all the answers

Sometimes we feel like everybody must be going crazy
Can these guys really be that thick?
Too sure to listen, swiftly fucking up your major project
Credit goes to them, but never you

Did you hear their blatant narcissism gets taken for magnetism
By some other old white men? (Tale as old as time)
Staff end up screaming and grieving
They all wish they were leaving
And work has lost all its meaning
(This place sucks balls)

It’s you, hi, you’re the problem, it’s you
On Teams Chat, everybody agrees
You’ll throw your staff under the bus without a hesitation
It must be refreshing always thinking you’ve got all the answers

They make up stories about why all their best staff are bailing
It’s always us and never them
The workforce gathers ‘round and gossips, and then someone screams out
“They’ve made our lives a living hell”

It’s you, hi, you’re the problem, it’s you
It’s you, hi, you’re the problem, it’s you
It’s you, hi, everybody agrees, everybody agrees
It’s you, hi (hi), you’re the problem, it’s you (You’re the problem, for sure!)
On Teams (Teams) Chat (Chat) everybody agrees (everybody agrees)
You’ve got the self-awareness of a fucking mashed potato
It must be refreshing, you fucking useless white male “super-hero”

I laughed aloud at “self-awareness of a fucking mashed potato”. The feels like it should be some kind of Neo-country song. 😛

Thank you! It was definitely satisfying to write. I’d love to animate it – I have this mental picture of little dudes in suits, panicking and flailing.
