When the Auditors Walk In

Tune: When the Saints Go Marching In

Verse:    We are going through the motions
                Like those who’ve gone before,
                But the outlook’s not so rosy,
                There’s a great big shock in store.

Oh, when the au — ditors walk in,
Oh, when the auditors walk in,
They’ll find our laptops* all are missing,
When the auditors walk in.

Oh, when they’ve counted all the beans,
Oh, when they’ve counted all the beans,
They’ll say we’ve wasted all your money,
When they’ve counted all the beans.

Oh, when they check up on our work,
Oh, when they check up on our work,
They’ll go ape at our procedures,
When they check up on our work.

Verse:    Some say this kind of trouble
                Is exactly what we need,
               And they’re all anticipating,
               A really stirring read.

Oh, when they issue their report,
Oh, when they issue their report,
We won’t have much of a future,
When they issue their report.

Oh, when the au — ditors walk in,
Oh, when the auditors walk in,
I want to be out of this section,
When the auditors walk in.

* Or records, if preferred.
