Meetings (or 'Big Six')
We had a meeting to discuss
Whether we, that’s you and us
Should have a meeting every week
We need approval, which we’ll seek
At a meeting, another day
After which, we will say
Whether we’ll meet on the second or first
In any case, for what it’s worth
At the meeting, we will explain
The reason for meeting again and again
Now, at the last meeting, I did try to say
I’d really quite like a meeting-free day
With all of these meetings, held here and there
Nothing gets done and it doesn’t seem fair
Well, what d’ya think happened,
Do you know, can you guess?
They said, “Easy dear boy,
It must be the stress
Can’t you see why you’re here,
Haven’t you got a clue
Don’t you know that these meetings
Are all we can do?”
Well, it seems we get paid
To waste all of this time
But it just can’t be right
And it’s really a crime!
