Last night, Michael Scott hosted the last Dundies (the Dunder-Mifflin awards). As you might recall,  Michael Scott is leaving ‘The Office’ in only a few more episodes, to be replaced by DeAngelo Vickers (Will Ferrell).

The cast of ‘The Office’ used the end of the episode to give Michael a proper send off, and it’s a real tear-jerker. They put together a song entitled “9,986,000 Minutes” (the total time Michael had spent working for Dunder-Mifflin), and it’s actually really catchy. That’s probably because it’s a parody of ‘Seasons of Love’ from the Rent soundtrack (525,600 minutes).

Well done.

The lyrics:

9,986,000 Minutes
We actually sat down and did the math.
9,986,000 Minutes
That’s how many minutes that you worked here.

In costumes,
and impressions.
In meetings.
and cups of coffee.

For birthdays,
more meetings and
email forwards you made us read.

9,986,000 Minutes
That’s like watching ‘Die Hard’ 80,000 times.

You hit me with your car.
You helped me get off drugs.
I watch you when you sleep.
I forgive you kissing me.
