Hey buddy, old pal, do you remember my son? He’s older now and he’s got nothing going on.
He’s got no diploma, he’s still living at home and all he ever does is complain
He needs some direction so you with your connections
Could you get my son a government job?
Well, old friend, of course I can!
We’ve got a place for him up in the executive branch
He’ll have benefits, dental and a pension plan
He can start tomorrow if he’s down with it, you follow?
That’s way too much, he’s a lazy and as such, I wanna help him out but he shouldn’t have a crutch
He’s got no ambition, his grades are insufficient and he never read a book in his life
He needs some direction so you with your connections
Could you get my son a government job?
Well, old friend, I’ll set him right as rain!
I know just the right people in the senate campaign
He’ll have benefits, dental, does he like cocaine?
He can start tomorrow if he’s down with it, you follow?
No, no, no, let him start off small. I don’t want to spoil him too much after all.
He’s gotta earn his pay, but he’ll do so in a way that’ll teach him how to be a man
He needs some direction so you with your connections
Could you get my son a government job?
Well, old friend, I suppose we do
Have some positions on the cleaning crew
The mail room, the front desk, catering too but hey
For that, he’ll need a diploma
That’s what it takes to get a government job
That’s what it takes to get a government job
That’s what it takes to get a government job
