A new work week, I’m screwed
‘Cos I know my job’s leading me
Nowhere
Nowhere
Long a-go realized
Lotto win is the way to please
My despair
I declare
And though it’s natural that work supplies my pay
I can’t believe I deal with drongoes every day
It’s hard to feel pride
When values must be cast aside
No prayer
Unprepared
And now the phone has rung
Another smartarse with some sharp tongue
Must fake care
So unfair...
Employees flocked by water cooler in array
I’m so bereaved I deal with drongoes every day
Bleh, bleh, bleh...
Captured what their trend do be
Co-workers now:
Paid to fake work easily
I’m aware
This blows: supervisoring
Catchin’ ‘em nappin’ in loo
And downloadin’ crap on PC
Yeah ! Beware !
Deal with drongoes every day
Deal with drongoes every day
Deal with drongoes every day
(You know they ain’t too bright now)
Deal with drongoes every day
(Their brains are on ‘slight’ now)
Deal with drongoes every day
(You know they’re a fright now)
Deal with drongoes every day
(Their actions incite now)
Deal with drongoes every day
(Should set ‘em alight now)
Deal with drongoes every day
(You know that I might now)
Deal with drongoes every day
(Just tell ‘em they bite now)
Deal with drongoes every day
(Them kids aren’t alright now)
Deal with drongoes every day
‘Cos I know my job’s leading me
Nowhere
Nowhere
Long a-go realized
Lotto win is the way to please
My despair
I declare
And though it’s natural that work supplies my pay
I can’t believe I deal with drongoes every day
It’s hard to feel pride
When values must be cast aside
No prayer
Unprepared
And now the phone has rung
Another smartarse with some sharp tongue
Must fake care
So unfair...
Employees flocked by water cooler in array
I’m so bereaved I deal with drongoes every day
Bleh, bleh, bleh...

In America, we call them "Bush supporters." And we call this a five-worthy parody.
Nice stuff! Can't wrong-go with Drongo, I always say...\\'Just tell \\'em they bite now\\' ... Ha!
aussie wot ya mean, mate
Nice
Nice work, Pip (I'm guessing this is mostly yours...) I haven't heard the word "drongo" for ages, and gee I miss it! 555
You are a very astute man, Kristof, and certainly not a drongo. Great descriptor, isn't it ? A good 'polite insult' :)
I really sympathized with this one, as I deal with an equal number of drongoes behind the counter of a charity shop often!
That one word sums it beautifully doesn't it ? Love it :)
In Canada we call then "democratic presidential hopefuls"
In Australia Drongoes are dingoes without a ding. I might give you a call now.
