The auditors are coming, a week from today <br />Everything that you can, please put it away <br />Those things on the shelf that have sat there for months <br />Put them away, we’re playing hide and hunt <br /> <br />The auditors are coming, they’ve boxes to tick <br />Don’t leave anything lying around on which they can pick <br />Those innocent looking tapes, what secrets do they hold <br />Only the whole financial record of the company’s gold! <br /> <br />The auditors are coming, for audit type 7799 <br />Are we compliant with all of the guidelines <br />Are we in accordance with every one of the regulations <br />So all boxes can be ticked, and we can have celebrations! <br /> <br />The auditors are coming, they’re coming today <br />Quick, hide that cable, put it out of the way <br />The auditors are coming, they’re right at the door <br />Oh just shove the lot of it under the floor <br /> <br />(Sydney, Australia - 2007)<br /><br />Alessandra Liverani<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-auditors-are-coming-humour/
