TYPE "A" PERSONALITY
Imperfections running rife
ruining my perfect life
why can't idiots just see
my way is how it all should be
If you chance to work for me
how unlucky you must be
'cause I don't care about your life
your dog or kids or even wife
Don't get me wrong or misconstrue
"cause I will endlessly bore you
with minutae of my family
of interest 'cause its about me
You think my scheduling is nuts?
just do it no ifs or buts
if late hours are required
put them in and smile or you'll be fired
I'll vacation and leave you working
expecting no complaints or shirking
for I deserve some time to play
but you should work each single day
Traffic rules aren't meant for me
which is the way that it should be
turn signals are just meant for others
I'll even "cut off"pregnant mothers
See my new ,large ,lovely house?
the builder was a foolish louse
I ordered changes without writing
refused to pay, no contract, no fighting
I'll take advantage if I'm able
your wellbeing is not on the table
for my lone concern is me
on my own terms all must agree
You say I'm selfish, crude, and crass
and that my time will someday pass
I'd think you'd realized before
what"A" in Type A stands for
ruining my perfect life
why can't idiots just see
my way is how it all should be
If you chance to work for me
how unlucky you must be
'cause I don't care about your life
your dog or kids or even wife
Don't get me wrong or misconstrue
"cause I will endlessly bore you
with minutae of my family
of interest 'cause its about me
You think my scheduling is nuts?
just do it no ifs or buts
if late hours are required
put them in and smile or you'll be fired
I'll vacation and leave you working
expecting no complaints or shirking
for I deserve some time to play
but you should work each single day
Traffic rules aren't meant for me
which is the way that it should be
turn signals are just meant for others
I'll even "cut off"pregnant mothers
See my new ,large ,lovely house?
the builder was a foolish louse
I ordered changes without writing
refused to pay, no contract, no fighting
I'll take advantage if I'm able
your wellbeing is not on the table

You say I'm selfish, crude, and crass
and that my time will someday pass
I'd think you'd realized before
