Don McLean

Decades after penning "American Pie," Don McLean is ready to part with the handwritten lyrics for his career-defining hit, and whoever takes ownership of the manuscript will pay handsomely for the privilege.

Some people leave their jobs on good terms, keeping their friendships (and, of course, future references) intact, while others come up with clever ways to burn every possible bridge between themselves and their soon-to-be former employers. But Karen Cheng chose to combine the two, making a cute video of her rewrite of Don McLean's 'American Pie' to give her notice at Microsoft.
