Meetings
Poem By Mick Leigh

I'm going to a meeting to talk about a meeting, we had at a meeting just the other day.
If you really want to see them you better hold a meeting
cos it's the only way to see them and really have your say.
Sorry they can't see you cos they're all in a meeting,
what's it all about, I really can't say.
When you go to a meeting, do lots of nailbiting,
but don't let them see that you haven't got a clue.
When they ask you a question say more than likely or even absolutely,
it's entirely up to you.

So when you go to a meeting take notice of the seating
and who is in the chair so you know exactly where,
as you climb the corporate ladder and your life becomes madder
by knowing to agree or just wait and see,
cos it won't take long to sing the corporate song
and your future is assured and you'll never be bored,
cos the minutes of the meeting are never worth repeating,
and you've got to have a quoram if you really want to bore 'em.

So look very serious, even though you are delirious
and make sure you focus on all the hocus pocus
and look at Madam Chair and her most ridiculous hair
and the earrings she's wearing are enough to keep you staring,
you can wonder what she does when she really needs a buzz,
it must be very scary and really quite contrary,
now they're asking questions and calling for suggestions,
so I think I'll move motion and cause a commotion,
that we all go home!
