The Meeting From Hell

Steve Graham
Words and Music

We were in a meeting for a week or two
I know you’re wonderin’, what did we do
I bet you think that we played all day
But the meeting from Hell, didn’t go that way

As best I recall it went like this...

On day one we reviewed the agenda and re-wrote it line by line
On day two we took a break and we voted on the time
Early next morning we asked ourselves what business we were in
But we didn’t like the answer so we asked ourselves again

As best I recall it went like this...

By mid-week we were getting hungry we ordered lunch brought in
We would have had consensus but Pam is a vegetarian
By week two we were almost through, we were on a roll
But then we asked our purpose and we stopped to search our souls

As best I recall it went like this

We were in a meeting for a week or two
I know you’re wonderin’, what did we do
I bet you think that we played all day
But the meeting from Hell, didn’t go that way

As best I recall it went like this

The last two days we drafted our plan and shared it with the staff
Giggles, laughter, open revolt was what we got back
We were changing our strategy when the intercom broke in
Please come to the conference room, don’t be late again

As best I recall it went like that
