My Boss Is in a Band

When asked about my boss, you could say a stand-up guy
Dependable, straight forward, and doesn't wear a tie
A background in accountancy, he hides it very well
Owns a mug that proudly states, his love for Excel

With clarity and focus, he's walking up to me
I thought it work related, but he's holding a CD

My boss is in a band, he doesn't understand
The underlying pressure's getting tougher to withstand
There's no way to avoid, I'd like to stay employed
I want to be supportive, but I'm feeling paranoid
My boss is in a band

Recounting all his early days, the stories never cease
Recording in a studio, once used by The Police
Before they became famous, when nobody knew
He even shared a corridor, with Larry from U2

Generally forgiving, another time we might
But he's invited everyone, to a gig next Friday night

My boss is in a band, he doesn't understand
The underlying pressure's getting tougher to withstand
There's no way to avoid, I'd like to stay employed
I want to be supportive, but I'm feeling paranoid
My boss is in a band

A Gibson Les Paul purchased from
Jimmy Page's neighbour's mum
A Lynyrd Skynyrd live LP
He very keen to lend to me
Oscar Peterson he met
Queuing for a cheese baguette
Do I want a spare ticket to
See the bloke from Deacon Blue?

My boss is in a band, he doesn't understand
The underlying pressure's getting tougher to withstand
There's no way to avoid, I'd like to stay employed
I want to be supportive, but I'm feeling paranoid
My boss is in a band
