The Company Way
Lyrics
When I joined this firm As a brash young man Well, I said to myself "Now, brash young man Don't get any ideas" Well, I stuck to that Haven't had one in years! (You play it safe?) I play it the company way Wherever the company puts me There I stay (But what is your point of view?) I have no point of view (Supposing the company thinks that-) I think so too (Now, what would you say-) I wouldn't say! (Your face is a company face) It smiles at executives Then goes back in place (The company furniture) Oh, it suits me fine (The company letterhead) A valentine! (Anything you're against?) Unemployment (When they want brilliant thinking From employees) That is no concern of mine (Suppose a man of genius Makes suggestions) Watch that genius get suggested to resign! (So, you play it the company way) Oh, company policy is by me O.K (You'll never rise up to the top) There's one thing clear Whoever the company fires I will still be here! (Ah, you certainly found a home) It's cozy (Your brain is a company brain) The company washed it And now I can't complain )Hey, the company magazine) Oh what style, what punch (The company restaurant) Every day, same lunch Their haddock sandwich It's delicious (I must try it) Early in the week (Do you have any hobbies?) I've a hobby I play gin with Mr. Bratt (Mr. Bratt! And do you play it nicely?) Play it nicely Still, he blitzes me In every game like that! (Why?) 'Cause I play it the company way Executive policy is by me O.K (How can you get anywhere?) Junior, have no fear Whoever the company fires I will still be here (You will still be here) Year after year after fiscal Never-take-a-risk-ll year!
