lyrics

My hats off to you, dear employee
Expectations grew with your output
So congratulations for your effort
That is all I can offer now, my recognition
I saw the submission
I hope all goes your way
We'll know for sure by friday night

I remember when you first came here
Back when we had blue applications
Now they're white again
Or you fill them out online
You must not be blind
There's such competition
So here's to wishing
That you'll be here to stay
We'll know for sure by friday night

Your wedding day I cut the cake
It's been some ride for heaven's sake
We stuck it out, we sucked it in
And said goodbye to cherished friends
We've seen the broken men grow tired
And the unlucky ones get fired
As younger footsteps came to step inside their shoes

All those silly rumors
They're behind you
And won't influence their decision
Let me buy you lunch
At the place we used to go
When we both were green
Young and ambitious
Both of us in stitches
It feels so far away
Almost as far as friday night

When we were young
Our kids would play
I've seen you almost every day
For twenty years since 25
And now we're both half past alive
We always hope it's someone else
When they are tightening their belts
We've dodged more shots
Than Gary Cooper in 'High Noon'

Your wedding day I cut the cake
It's been some ride for heaven's sake
