Accounts Receivable: The Song

To the person who asked that I stop writing songs, I'm sorry. Some artwork just can't be held back. I'll try to do better next time.

Now to embed in your mind a song only slightly more annoying than Chumbawumba's "Tubthumping," I present to you "Accounts Receivable" (to the tune of Jimmy Buffet's "Margaritaville").

Alphabetizin'
Doin' expenses
Clearly, I'm livin' the Hollywood dream.

Calls I am rollin'
Copyin', Faxin'
Don't tell mom this is what I've become.

Tempin' away my life in Accounts Receivable
Wondering why I even have a B.A.
Some people claim that it's Hollywood to blame
But I know, it's cause I have hope.

I don't know the reason
It's past pilot season
I didn't get cast to work on a show.

Why aren't I related
To Brian Grazer?
It would sure be better for my acting career.

Wastin' away my life in Accounts Receivable
Wondering why I even have a B.A.
Some people claim that it's Hollywood to blame
Now I think...
I need bigger boobs.

I saw it on Craigslist
Acting only for credits
Just what I need, more deferred pay.

My landlord's been askin'
Why did my check bounce.
I told him Endeavor pays 9 bucks an hour.

Tempin' away my life in Accounts Receivable
Wondering why I even have a B.A.
Some people claim that it's Hollywood to blame
But I know, I'm givin' up hope.
Yes and some people claim that it's Hollywood to blame
And I know, it's my own damn fault.
