I am writing to you to apply for the post
I’ve been hearing so much about
With the house and the car
And the friends and the cat
And yes, the work--
And the parties!
I’ve got three years of pet-sitting under my belt
And twenty of taking in air
With my online chat skills
And 300 ‘net pals
Who better for this post
Than talkative me?
I’m a hard-working girl who likes to have fun
(When appropriate at least)
But I won’t turn up drunk
Or hung-over or sick
And I’ll forever care
For my buddies
I’d do my best to give it my all, you see
Desperate to be given a chance
I know I can do it
So why don’t you let me
Have a try at this thing
Called A Life?
