[Verse 1]
The foreman said, "We need this work done now"
The foreman said, "We need this work done yesterday"
"I know your tools are made of moulded wax
But just knuckle down lads it will have to do"
[Chorus]
Tick boxes
Tick boxes
[Verse 2]
The chipboard rollercoaster shivers in the wind
Smirking proudly in its boundary-breaking shape
A power tool is melting in John's hands
The foreman bellows, "We are running late!"
[Chorus]
Tick boxes
Tick boxes
Tick 'em
[Verse 3]
The vice-president trips down the boardwalk
Smiling proudly at the boundary-breaking shapŠµ
His vision realised right beforŠµ his eyes
The engineer said that it might not blow away
[Chorus]
Tick 'em
