Absolutely Obsolete

(album: Office Politics - 2019)

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
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…
