Chris Rock
I Was Fired
[Verse 1: Adam Sandler]
I was fired
I was fired
I was fired, so sad to tell
Well, I never saw it coming
I got fired from SNL

Between seasons I heard a nasty rumor
That I was getting the sack
I tried to call Lorne Michaels
But he never called me back

[Spoken: Adam Sandler]
I'm joking, I'm joking
He called me, he called me

[Verse 2: Adam Sandler]
I guess NBC had enough of crazy spoon head
And the songs I sang on the news
Maybe they were sick of canteen boy
But I think they just hate the jews

I was fired
Not rehired
Well it made me sad and blue
I told my boy Chris Farley I got fired and he said
"SANDMAN, THEY FIRED MY ASS TOO!"
[Spoken: Adam Sandler and Chris Rock]
Chris Rock is here... Chris Rock!
Hey baby! I love ya!
Hey man, how's it going?
We- we were on the show together right?
Yeah, yeah. Same time! We got t- the same day
That's right. That's right
Why did you ever leave the show? I don't understand that
Why did I ever leave the show? Well, Adam...

[Verse 3: Chris Rock]
I got fired
I was fired
I was fired by NBC
Then I went on in Living Color
Three weeks later they took it off TV

[Spoken: Adam Sandler and Pete Davidson]
It's okay, okay
You hang in there
You keep going after your dream

Hey, man! What's up?
How are you doing?
How are you doing, pal?
[Verse 4: Pete Davidson]
I was fired
I was fire-

[Spoken: Adam Sandler and Pete Davidson]
Hey, hang on. No no. Pete, you weren't fired
I wasn't? How's that even possible?
I don't know, but be patient because it's coming soon

[Verse 5: Adam Sandler]
Well it broke my heart to pieces
Cause SNL was my home
Where could I do my silly voices now?
I never felt so alone

Yeah, I was fired
I was fired
NBC said that I was done
Then I made over 4 billion dollars at the box office
So I guess you could say I won

So I was fired
But tonight I'm rehired
And I'm the happiest man alive
Cause it feels so good to be back with you where it all began for me
