Frank Loesser
Organization Man (Unused)
When I joined this firm
As a brash young man
I said to myself
"Now, brash young man
Don't get any ideas."
Well, I stuck to that
And I haven't had one in years
I'm an organization man
I do things the organization way
Wherever the organization puts me
I stay
In the organization plan
My name's marked "reliable employee"
'Cause I've learned the organization's bigger
Than me
If I don't get comical and step out of line
I'll retire with benefits at eighty-nine
I'm an organization man
I do things the organization way
And that's why the organization loves me and needs me
And let me tell you something
Long ago, when the word came down to vote for Landon
I voted for Landon with abandon
After that when the word came that the plant might have to shut
I waived my vacation and I gladly took the salary cut
I'm no radical!
I'm no nut!
I'm an organization man
I do things the organization way
And that's why the organization loves me and needs me
And I'm gonna tell you another thing
When my wife broke a leg, I had to pay the doctor
Four hundred, in cash to [?]
Well sir, here at the company they paid it right away
Against my two flat bush lots and only nine percent of pay
I got credit here!
I'm okay!
I'm an organization man
I do things the organization way
And that's why the organization loves me and needs me and wants me
Day after day after Womper organization day!
