There's Another Person Leaving
THERE’S ANOTHER PERSON LEAVING
There’s another person leaving.
We’re less popular than thieving.
So I know what I’m receiving:-
Another card to sign.
He only started yesterday.
I never met him anyway.
So what the hell am I to say?
‘You’re the fastest to resign!’
The comments range from ‘It’s A Shame’
to ‘All the best’ and ‘Call again!’.
But no one seems to know your name.
‘Dude. Better luck next time.’
And then an envelope appears
But none of our cash disappears,
as there are disapproving jeers.
And now I think, you swine!
He only started yesterday.
We never met him anyway.
So none of us are gonna pay.
Our messages aren’t kind.
Instead we buy some lunchtime wine
and have a bloody jolly time.
We slag him off. It’s not a crime!
We don’t care if he minds.
There’s another person leaving.
We’re less likeable than grieving
or Myra Hindley’s breathing.
We found out he was blind!

Yes - I can identify with this one. Have been at the giving end of many collections and they always seem to wind the bastard idea up just before my birthday - not that I am uncharitable or anything...
