This is the story of a guy
Who tried to buy and drowned in paperwork
And while overwhelmed in bureaucracy
He decided to step up
And Focus!

How many days in a year?
He woke up with hope, but he only found tears?
Vendors could be so insincere
Making their promises never for real
As long as he stood there waiting
Finding the holes in the piece-mealed silos
How many days disappeared?
While he dealt with bad software
So what’s one to do?

POs never fare as well the next day
And your hair never falls out quite the same way
Ev’ry day yet another thing goes astray

This is the story of a guy
Who tried to buy and drowned in paperwork
And while overwhelmed in bureacuracy
He decided to step up
And Focus!

Now how many buyers would stay
Just to put up with this every day and all day?
Now how did we wind up this way
Watching our mouths for the words that we say?
As long as we stand there waiting
Finding the holes in the piece-mealed silos
How do we get there today
When we’re waiting too long for the price of our blues?

POs never fare as well the next day
And your hair never falls out quite the same way
Ev’ry day yet another thing goes astray

This is the story of a guy
Who tried to buy and drowned in paperwork
And while overwhelmed in bureaucracy
He decided to step up
And Focus!
