The Buzz Word Blues

I learned me a brand-new language of the Corporate gals and guys,
A buncha acronyms and tag words that comprise the smart replies,
They be talkin' pretty funny, got a jargon you might miss,
Like a crazy foreign language, and it goes something like this:
My ROI is A-OK, net solutions-yeah they're me,
Routine selection decisions, output analysis by 3.
Management by objectives to improve adverse results,
And the situation appraisal will prove they're not my fault.

I'm a results-oriented team player, 360 all the way,
My performance matrix is on the wall; it's my ticket to the play.
My career is vertically mobile, if you see her tell my wife,
In a hostile takeover call on me, we'll merge, you bet your life.

I've got an impede-ment in productivity; boundaries are hard and strong,
Though I've got e-commerce proclivity, my to-do list is way too long,
I'm calling a workout session to get us back up to speed,
Maybe some global solution selling will get the promotion that I need,
My IPO's got too much variance, cash flow's on the floor,
They say "Don't manage your size, son, leverage it," drive those systems out
the door.

My CFO moved to R&D, and I was DOA JIT,
My Severity One wiped my global team,
And I clicked on my Nav bar and let out a scream,
My power management solution, was a victim of Y2K,
And innovative engineering caused my desktop to wash away.

I learned me a brand-new language of the Corporate gals and guys,
A buncha acronyms and tag words that comprise the smart replies,
We be talkin' pretty funny, got a jargon book this thick,
If you wanna hop on this gravy train you better learn it mighty quick:
Management by objectives will improve adverse results,
And the situation appraisal will prove they're not my fault.
My ROI is A-OK, net solutions-yeah they're me,
but If you're asking me what I do for kicks? it's a bona fide mystery
