The Midnight Run Song (tip of the hat to Jimmy Webb)

By the time I get to Incheon she'll be rising
She'll find the note I left hangin' on her door
She'll laugh when she reads the part that says I'm leavin'
'Cause I've left that girl so many times before

By the time I make Osaka she'll be working
She'll prob'ly stop at lunch and give me a call
But she'll just hear that phone keep on ringin'
Off the wall that's all

By the time I make Vancouver she'll be sleepin'
She'll turn softly and call my name out loud
And she'll cry just to think I'd really leave her
Tho' time and time I try to tell her so
She just didn't know I would really go.

Smile

A hagwon boss' lament.

Oh where art thou now oh exotic foreign teacher,
On whom my business relied,
I made you teach 46 classes per week,
And now you've slipped into the night.

The lack of forward thinking,
and the fact that you have ran,
Has left me truely up shit creek,
For there is no contingency plan.

I'll cover the classes as best I can,
but when the mothers realise,
that there is no foreign monkey dancing,
they'll surely cut their ties.

And so I say to you selfish foreigner,
46 classes, no breaks, average pay,
Why ever did you run from me,
your workload was a Korean's holiday.
