I don't think it's just my problems at work that are making me think of this, but I'm sure I've heard these lyrics sung to a well-known tune:

"I really hate this job, I really hate this job, I really hate this job, I really hate this job" to a sort of show-time ya-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta, ya-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta, sort of rhythm.

I'm sure the show is/was something like Cabaret or Chicago, but I can't think of it and my searches have revealed nothing for me.

Can anyone help please?
 
Sorry it doesn't ring a bell with me. I'm pretty sure it's not Avenue Q.

Maybe it was a spoof/comedy song to the tune of a well known musical song. In Chicago there is a song that starts. "He had it coming, He had it coming."
Maybe it was that tune with your lyrics used instead of the original ones?
 
I think it may be just a spoof, I don't think it's "he had it coming", but perhaps one from Cabaret. I keep thinking Cabaret, but that's so famous that if there was a song called that, someone would know. It probably is a spoof. I wish I'd wirtten it! ;)
