Lyrics
My boss gave me a carrot because I was good
But now I gotta give it away
A cute little carrot with long green hair
I don't want to give it away.
Chorus:
Oh, you can't take my carrot
No, you can't take my carrot
I won't let you take it away
Oh, you can't take my carrot
I earned my carrot
And I want my carrot to stay right here.
I need to give my carrot to someone else
Someone who is helpful to me
But maybe they would like an apple or a peach
Yep, the carrot is staying with me.
(chorus)
The HR people came for my carrot
I kept it for more than a day
So sue me if I am not a team player
I don't want to give my carrot away
(chorus then..)
Right here, in my desk, with my pencils
And my squeeze ball and the swizzle stick from last year
And the leftover refrigerator magnets...
