To Whom It May Concern

Tonight will be the last night of my record-breakingly successful run in the
lead role of the greatest play of the century.
Unprecedentedly warm praise from critics and public alike has met my portrayal
of a man at his desk who gives a damn.
«Oh, oh, oh, if I could only see the clear blue sky from my office window,
oh, oh, oh, it would only take a steel grey day and I’d take my bow.»
And I’d like to thank all my friends and fans for always pushing me to soldier
on.
So one last time (for the cameras) my greatest soliloquy:
«Oh, oh, oh, if I could only see the clear blue sky from my office window,
oh, oh, oh, it would only take a steel grey day and I’d take my bow.»
To whom it may concern: I’d like to nominate myself
to receive an award as a small symbol of recognition
for my body of work — a lifetime of selling my body to pay the bills.
But my heart and my mind are mine, mine, you will not win this war — this is
just a battle.
Oh, oh, oh, well I’ve surrendered to my physical attendance here,
but no, no, no, you will not take my soul — let’s we forget why I’m sitting
here.
My letter to the human resources department says «You started a war so you’ll
get what you started.»
I’m only working here because I need the fucking money.
