EGot to my office where my ugly little boss is. His breath smelled bad D#mcause the guy 
never flosses.
F#Talked about his day and all his business causes, sat down at my desk and I G#mjust D#mfreakC#min

F#Oh-what do I desirG#me, can I hold ouD#mt or light this fire?C#m  
BCrawl through the door at 8pm, and I put my food into thC#me microwave again.
EBurned my mouth on molten lava cheese, and in the process, I ruined mD#my jeans.
F#Ripped off my jeans, threw them in the wash. Searched for my sweats with the G#mhole in the crotch.
D#mAs I put them on, I heard a knock on the door, I went to see what the C#mcommotion was for.
D#mI opened up as a person approached, and then realized I C#mwas
G#mexposed.
(Bridge)
