To Joel

You will not achieve your greatest goal And be re-instated as foreman Joel, You've had your chance and came unstuck And you've abused your better luck. In Northmeadows you dug your 'career grave' You were so rude to the supervisor Dave You rubbished the boss's favoured son And you've paid the price for what you've done. In Southmeadows they don't want you there The workers think you quite unfair They'd much prefer work under Tim And they even like you less than him. And as for the company's other crew They are happy with their foreman Drew And though you may think you are number two The boss has other plans for you. Big John is now in second place And you're out of the foreman race And you are too far down the line If Drew should decide to resign. You have 'looked the gift horse in the mouth' And your atitude has found you out And the boss will surely laugh on the day That you will give the job away. To your fellow workers you've been rude And you have the wrong attitude And you will never reach your goal For you are out of favour Joel.
