The Rise of Robots: Take This Job and Shove It! ('Cause You Ain't Workin Here No More!)

The Rise of Robots - thenewamerican.com

Excerpt from this article:

"San Francisco: the home of Haight-Ashbury, the Golden Gate Bridge, and Pier 39; an icon of neoliberalism and left-wing policies, homosexual activism, and countercultural movements. It’s also an incredibly expensive place to live that is becoming increasingly gentrified by young urban tech-sector workers. Now, a new revolution is coming to the City by the Bay: a fully automated 'gourmet' fast-food restaurant opening at 680 Folsom Street in the SoMa neighborhood."

Here is my 2016 update to Johnny Paycheck's hit song: Take This Job and Shove It!

"Take this Job and shove it,
'Cause you ain't workin here no more!
We bought a robot. It took all the reasons,
We had you workin for.
You better not try to stand in our way,
'Cause we'll escort you out the door.
So take this job and shove it,
'Cause you ain't workin here no more!"

After I wrote that, I checked on You Tube to see if anyone else had beat me to the punch. Here are a couple of other parodies to this song:
