Home, Song List, Previous Song, Next Song
In pools of light sit clerks despairing,
All through the night,
Budget estimates preparing,
All through the night.
Massive projects so inspiring,
Generous funding all requiring,
Worth the work that is so tiring,
All through the night.
Now we hope they didn’t fudge it,
All through the night,
Did our projects make the budget,
All through the night.
Can we hear the treasurer speaking,
Ranting loudly o’er our weeping,
In the bin our hopes he’s sweeping,
All through the night.
