Lame Excuses

(:60)

 

Smith:   Close the door, gentlemen.  (Door sound f/x)  So. Today’s the first of the month. Where’s my software project?

 

Gary:     Well, chief, we thought you, uh, might be wondering about that. So we’ve prepared a little statement.  Al?

 

(2 bars piano intro)

 

Guys:    We hate to miss a deadline

            We’re really losing face.

Gary:     But so many things have happened

Guys:    To bring us to this place.

            A small misunderstanding

            ‘Bout the nature of the beast

Andy:    Meant we had to do some scrambling -- 

Dean:   That set us back two weeks!

Al/Andy: We lost a week to holidays

Dean/Gary:  And half-a-week to flu

Al:        And it didn’t help to have to train

Guys:    A DOZEN

Al:        New recruits.

Guys:    We thought we nailed it weeks ago

            And everything was fine.

Gary:    It worked real well on Al’s machine

Andy:    But crashed and failed on mine!

Guys:    But barring further maladies

            And if we really crunch

            We’re positive we’ll have it done

            Within another month.

            Take it, Dean.

(Tap dancing sf/x; music and sf/x fade out)
