Perfect Stranger

Perfect Stranger is an American country music band founded in 1986 in the state of Texas by Steve Murray (lead vocals), Andy Ginn (drums), Shayne Morrison (bass guitar) and Richard Raines (guitar). After several years of performing throughout Texas, the quartet released an independent album in 1994; this album was later picked up by Curb Records, who re-packaged and re-released it a year later. By 1995, its second single (entitled "You Have the Right to Remain Silent") had become a Top 5 hit on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts. more »

Does it bother you to have my feet on your desk?
Please take it as a sign of no respect
Your office was open, thought we'd have a little talk
Here's somethin' you can stuff in your suggestion box

You're a bonehead jerk, yeah, I said it
I've been doin' all the work
You've been takin' all the credit
Shootin' me down, ridin' me steady
Come on, boss, fire when ready

I know you can't let me go without due cause
And I wouldn't wanna see you breakin' any laws
I could lay down on the job when I'm not home sick
But the more I think about it, this oughta do the trick

You're a bonehead jerk, yeah, I said it
I've been doin' all the work
You've been takin' all the credit
Shootin' me down, ridin' me steady
Come on, boss, fire when ready

I could've given my notice, sent you a memo
Or written you a resignation letter
Sayin' I quit, I've had it, that's it
But this just feels so much better

You're a bonehead jerk, yeah, I said it
I've been doin' all the work
You've been takin' all the credit
Shootin' me down, ridin' me steady
Come on, boss, fire when ready

You're a bonehead jerk, yeah, I said it
I've been doin' all the work
You've been takin' all the credit
Shootin' me down, ridin' me steady
Come on, boss, fire when ready
