With apologies to John Lennon:
Though I’m tired from too much social posting
I’m the prez, I’m always boasting
When I'm in the middle of a meeting
In a chair, I don’t care (I don’t care)
Please, don't wake me
No, don't shake me
Leave me where I am
I'm only sleeping
Though I’m tired from too much social posting
I’m the prez, I’m always boasting

In a chair, I don’t care (I don’t care)
Please, don't wake me
No, don't shake me
Leave me where I am
I'm only sleeping
