I am the very model of the modern Managerial,
I've information technical, financial, and political,
I know the image of the process, and I quote it chronological,
From concept to deployment, in orders that are se-quent-i-al;
I 'm very well acquainted too with matters logistical,
I understand equations, both predictive and financial,
About team work I'm ample with story and a bulletin,
With many cheerful facts about the vision and a stratagem.

Chorus line
With many cheerful facts about the vision and a stratagem;
With many cheerful facts about the vision and a stratagem;
With many cheerful facts about the vision and a strat-a-gem.

I am the very model of the modern managerial.

He is the very model of a modern managerial.

Third verse
I know my business history, like Bill Gates and Rockafeller,
The importance of monopolies, quangos, and government exchequer.
I quote in elegiac of the mantra that is ethical,
And reproach the audience if by chance they be a little sceptical.
With the wisdom of Solomon I thwart apocalyptic ends,
Then paranoiac thoughts demand I re-evaluate my friends,
I can quote the company processes with metaphoric glimmer,
Bullshit with the best of them, it's strategically a winner.

Chorus line
And bullshit with the best of them, it's strategically a winner,
And bullshit with the best of them, it's strategically a winner,
And bullshit with the best of them, it's strategically a winner.

And tell you every detail of Henry Ford's efficiencies;

He is the very model of a modern managerial.

Fifth verse
My job requires that I be 'master of the acronym,'
I can discriminate at sight a pointer from a fountain pen,
When such affairs as merger and amalgamation do commission,
And fully know precisely what is meant by protecting my position,
When I have learnt what progress has been made in modern flummery,
When I know more of sidesteps than a apprentice on the Telle V;
In short, when I've a smattering of monetary ability,
You'll say a better Man has never amass a better fee.

Chorus line
You'll say a better, Man never amass a better fee.
You'll say a better, Man never amass a better fee.
You'll say a better, Man never amass a better fee.

Sixth verse
For my business success, though I'm lucky it's a certainty,
My promotion is reflected on results and not on my proficiency;
But still, in matters that are technical, financial, and political,
I am the very model of the modern managerial,

Chorus line
But still, in matters that are technical, financial, and political,
He is the very model of a modern managerial!
