A female's co-worker won't stop repeating info
As I continually provide great customer service
Straightening the constantly cluttered shelves
You can’t help but tell me that you hate your job
But you told me that before so I already know that

The customers are whiny and bitching all the time
You refuse to help half of them because of this
Helping the spoiled ones is not something you do
But you told me that before so I already know that

You take a break every hour on the hour
Sometimes your gone so long, I wonder if you still here
Someone of your stature needs their beauty sleep you say
But you told me that before so I already know that

When your boyfriend breaks up with you
You call out sick so you can sulk the day away
Women shouldn’t have to work through a break-up
But you told me that before so I already know that

I’m always covering for you, filling in when you’re out
But you rarely thank me or even acknowledge my help
A genuine offer of help shouldn’t be expecting a reward
But you told me that before so I already know that

You spoiled, rotten and mean.  Worse than customers sometimes
You live on this high like you can do anything you want
Your uncle got you this job and he’s part owner of the company
But you told me that before so I already know that

The saying goes: Keep your friends close, your enemies closer
You not bad enough to be my enemy, I would say
But close enough to my friend, that I should be able to trust you
There’s an unspoken connection between sisters you repeat
But you told me that before so I already know that
