The Lyrics

Business meetings are kinda boring as balls. Just like this song! Enjoy!
Well, I can barely stay awake
Even if I slap myself
This meeting just goes on and on
Slide after slide, end it a-all
Not even Ben Stein is this dreary
Yelled at if I droo-oop my head
Even your shouting's boring as ever

Droopi-in' eyeli-ids, missed wha-at you sai-aid, don't gi-ive a shit
So bo-ored I wi-ish I wa-as in be-ed snoozi-in' instead

I ate the free donuts ages ago
I wish there was more o-of them
Every little sprinkle, I miss them so
They helped me fake atte-ention
You're dronin' about somethi-in'
Just send a memo, let me-e snooze

Meeti-ings I drea-ead, the sa-ame old shi-it: bori-in' as hell
Coffee-ee you mi-issed, no sti-imula-ants mean we-e look dead

Whether I had a week's advance notice, or
Some last-minute time-wa-aster
Always the same speech, wordy yet vague
No-one here's a note-ta-aker
You wanna tell us somethi-in'
Know we're not as slow-paced a-as you

All o-of us wi-ish we we-ere in be-ed snoozi-in' instead

Thought we needed this nonse-ense
Know how to collect our pa-ay, douche

Store's clo-osed, it's te-en o'clo-ock, we be-eg, dude, le-et this end
"Pay a-attentio-ion" you, o-once more, ye-ell, we kno-ow this dreck
Please, le-et us spli-it, go ho-ome to be-ed, we nee-eed a rest

No, I didn't do the ad-lib crap at the end. I have my limits.

I can see where you were inspired because Air Supply makes me so sleepy too. Their songs are just so boring... Not sure who added them but it was a mistake.

(Artistry) You definitely were bored, this wasn't constructed very well in terms of rhyming consistency or pacing...and it seems like your video choice did not match your lyric sheet.

(Artistry) You're rhyme scheme was very strange in this one. There wasn't a lot of rhyming at all really, which causes the parody to lose a little something. The lyrics were good, though. I liked them, I just wished you'd been able to spread your wings with the rhymes a bit. I blame the OS for that.

Bonus points for the Ben Stein reference!!! You know why ;)

Not bad. I definitely think you picked the right topic to match with the OS, but what really threw me was the way that you wrote it. I understand wh-y you wr-ote certain wo-ords with hyphens in it, but so many of them made it difficult to follow and so the pacing seemed off to me. If it was rewritten without that, this would be 555 worthy, nice work overall though.
