The Company Way

Mr Twimble You've been in this company a long time haven't you Long long time Just last month I became a quarter of a century now That's beautiful The a quarter of a century And how long you've been in the mailroom 25 years yep it takes accommodation of skill Diplomacy and bold caution 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 And haven't had one in years You play it safe I play it the company way Wherever the company puts me there I'll stay But what's your point of view I have no point of view Supposing the company thinks I think so too Ah 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 is A valentine Is there anything you're against Unemployment When they want brilliant thinking from employees That is no concern of mine Suppose a man of genius make suggestions Watch that genius get suggested to resign So you play it the company way Oh company policy is by me okay You'll never rise up to the top But there's one thing clear Whoever the company fires I will still be here You've certainly found a home It's cozy Your brain is a company brain The company washed it and now I can't complain The company magazine Boy 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 And do you play it nicely Play it nicely Still he blitzes me on every game like that Why 'Cause I play it the company way Executive policy is by me okay Oh 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 o year
