( Words & Music by Terre Roche )<br />

<br />

O Mr Sellack<br />

Can I have my job back?<br />

I've run out of money again.<br />

Last time I saw ya<br />

I was singing Hallelujah<br />

I'm so glad to be leavin' this restaurant.<br />

<br />

Now the only thing I want<br />

Is to have my old job back again.<br />

I'll clean the tables;<br />

I'll do the creams;<br />

I'll get down on my knees and scrub<br />

Behind the steam table.<br />

<br />

O Mr. Sellack<br />

I didn't think I'd be back.<br />

I worked here last year<br />

Remember?<br />

I came when Annie<br />

Was going on vacation<br />

And I stayed on almost till December.<br />

<br />

Now the only thing I want<br />

Is to have my old job back again.<br />

I won't be nasty to customers no more.<br />

When they send their burger back I'll tell them that<br />

I'm sorry.<br />

<br />

Waiting tables ain't that bad.<br />

Since I've seen you last, I've waited<br />

For some things that you would not believe<br />

To come true.<br />

<br />

Give me a broom and I'll sweep my way to heaven.<br />

Give me a job;<br />

You name it.<br />

Let the other forty-million three-hundred and seven<br />

People who want to get famous.<br />

<br />

Now the only thing I want<br />

Is to have that old job back again.<br />

I'll clean the tables;<br />

I'll do the creams;<br />

I'll get down on my knees and scrub<br />

Behind the steam table.
