I'm an editor and I'm okay
I sleep all night and I work all day
(chorus)
She's an editor and she's okay
She sleeps all night and she works all day
I cut down text, I eat my lunch,
I go to the lavatryyyyyy
Tuesdays I go to Photo Services
And check with thevisualresourceslibrarianaboutarranging photographyyyy...
I check syntax, I use big words
I like to wear short skirts
Weekends I get wasted
And dance on table-tops.

I first saw this word in an Atlantic Monthly article in 2009. I think it is the feminine form of editor, just as aviatrix is the feminine form of aviator. This is a word I don't like.

When I was in French class at my local community college, I was sure this was how I would have to describe myself. Instead I got to say, "Je suis rédactrice."
