Deb: One P.M.
Meeting with the staff
Lecture them on the board's behalf
And condemn giving workers carte blanche
Walter: My job has many fascets
Deb: One fifteen
Cut our pension size
Reconvene with the union guys
In between close our Deleware Branch
Walter: And liquidize our assests
Deb: Choose a date
For the meeting with Global Freight
Walter: Try the twenty-fifth
Emily: Walter, wait!
All: No one works on that day
Walter: See?!
Christmas always gets in the way
Deb: Half past two,
Legal wants a chat
When you're through,
Lecture over at N.Y.U.
On outbiding Taiwan
Walter: Well, it's my alma matter
Deb: In the car, meet new sale demands
Au revoir to your dinner plans
Tell H.R. they'll be working
Till dawn
Walter: Or else they're in hot water
Employees: Employees
Under Mr. Hobbs
Learn to please
Just to keep their jobs
We know he's more content when we say
Walter: All together now!
All: Christmas always gets in the way
Emily: (spoken) Walter, Christmas is five days away, we don't even have a tree.
Walter: What's the big brouhaha,
Over Fa the, the, la?
It's a childish ordeal
I mean flying reindeer?
Let's get real
Old Santa's sleigh
Just brings more bills to pay
So I gotta work or feel the squeeze
Money doesn't grow on Christmas trees
Emily: (spoken) Alright, let me see that calendar. If not today, how about tomorrow?
Let's see...
(sung) Half past one, buy a tree to trim
He's your son
Walter: I remember him
Emily: Don't make fun, there's too much to discuss
Walter: My budget needs rewriting
Emily: Two o'clock, skating in the park
Then a walk until after dark
Here's a shock, spend an evening with us!
Michael: Yay, mom and dad are fighting
Walter: Have no doubt, it's that time of year
Think about how I'm buried here
Help me out
Employees: It's all work and no play
Walter and Employees: 'Cause Christmas
Christmas, Christmas, Christmas
Walter: What does it always get?
All: In the way!
Walter: All right, everyone back to work!
