Cover art for Looking for a Job lyrics by Todd Snider

This song is a pretty self-explanatory rumination on the power dynamics between boss and employee - "you might be the one running the show but / that don't mean you're in charge". People who have nothing to lose are difficult to coerce with threats because what can you really threaten them with? "I was looking for a job when I found this one", so don't waste your breath telling me how you are going to fire me.
