Employment is a Girl's Best Friend Aware of the shallow message of our earlier hit, "Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend", we rewrote the words to reflect the reality of the 90s, especially since 60% of us had lost our jobs that year. We sang this at Frumie's graduation party, November 1996.

Can you tell which three Fetchings lost their jobs this year?

A kiss on the hand may be quite continental Employment is a girl's best friend. A kiss may be grand but it won't pay the rental On your humble flat Or help you at The Automat     Men grow old     And leave you cold     For some chick with a shapely rear end But full time or part time A job is your lifeline Employment is a girl's best friend. There may come a time when a lass needs a lawyer Employment is a girl's best friend There may come a time when some hard-up employer Says he likes your ass But drop the slob And keep your job     He may flirt     And eye your skirt     So look out when this looks like a trend You don't need this embarrassment So tell him that it's harrisment Employment is a girl's best friend I've heard of some jobs that are strictly for peanuts Employment is a girl's best friend And I think that jobs that would drive you and me nuts Would be better bets If all our sex Got big paycheques.     Profits soar     But they want more     And they'll push you to slave till the end It's then that some clown tries To lay off and downsize....    Employment (employment)     Employment (employment)     I don't mean Workfare! Employment is a girl's best friend!
