The night is not very cold

I am not very old

Every time I pass a day, I become 1 day old

One day closer to death

By counting my last breath

Then people will cover me with a wreath.

Quietly I pass my day

Living the American way

I sleep in morning to keep awake at night

With American accent I fight

Quite hard

To get some money as reward

The skill which I earn through hard work

Has got its reward!

Our company earns by dollar

We chew the accent by our molar

Some accents are so hard!!

People from around the world

Live in United States

It leaves us in a sorry state

We go on writing in the electronic slate

This is computer!

With a typing speed quite high

Our finger fly

Scoring a high line count

Is all what counts

With increasing pressure

Comes with higher responsibility

It grows with the individual ability.

Life is full of give and take

It is very commercial

The first job is crucial

Everyone is running after career

Money is honey

With lots of money, some think that the future will be sunny!!

They take a lot of bribe

They pretend to be saint

When they are caught

With the money they have got!!

From morning to night

We always fight

With different American hospitals

Some dictators are good, others bad

But it doesn't make us sad!!

When I tell it to my dad...

He consoles my soul!

I fell cool and calm

Try to settle down

But often frown!!

Like the share market

Our accuracy also depends on the dictator

Whose dictation is good

Helps us to work well

Helps our line count to swell

We become proud to tell!

And even yell!!

Like bulls and bears

We always hear

Good and bad dictation

Bad dictator causes tension

We take it with emotion

Causes headache

We say, "Leave us for God's sake!"

For work we have become unsocial

But no antisocial

We have forget to attend our own festival

With little or no interval

We go on with our work

In day and night

With little diversion

To lift our mood

We always remain good

As we do not have any other diversion

To focus our attention!
