The Divine Comedy - Office Politics

Absolutely Obsolete

You used to tell me that you loved me, but now I know
You have been trying to get rid of me from the word go
I wasn't so surprised to know an app could do my job
You'll find me in the bargain bin at the Oxfam shop, I'm

Absolutely obsolete
Please shut the door and take a seat
We're sad to say that you're completely
Absolutely obsolete
Absolutely obsolete
We know that you'll land on your feet
Clear out your desk and leave discreetly
Absolutely obsolete

I always thought we had a funny relationship
I would do the work that made the money
And you'd spend it (Yes you did)
And though I know I was a lowly cog in your machine
You said that I was still a vital member of your team, I'm

Absolutely obsolete
Please shut the door and take a seat
We're sad to say that you're completely
Absolutely obsolete
Absolutely obsolete
We know that you'll land on your feet
Clear out your desk and leave discreetly
Absolutely obsolete

If I could only turn the clock back to a better time
When the world was black and white
And we all had roles to play
Now it's all just shades of grey

I'm obsolete

Absolutely obsolete
Please shut the door and take a seat
We're sad to say that you're completely
Absolutely obsolete
Absolutely obsolete
We know that you'll land on your feet
Clear out your desk and leave discreetly
Absolutely obsolete
Absolutely obsolete
Please shut the door and take a seat
We're sad to say that you're completely
Absolutely obsolete
Absolutely obsolete
We know that you'll land on your feet
Clear out your desk and leave discreetly
Absolutely obsolete (I'm obsolete)
