The Folks Who Live In Morgan Hill

Someday we'll have a home in Silicon Valley
Something more than a box in an alley
Until then we will harken the call of the folks who live in Morgan Hill

Someday we'll win the lottery and buy bay property
And make upgrades as our dreams fulfill
But until that time we will fall back with the folks who moved to Morgan Hill

Our veranda will command a view worth vaults of green
The sort of view for a lucky few that almost seems obscene
And when the kids move back in much to their economic chagrin
We’ll sit and point at the route to the South, have no doubt

A jumbo size loan buys a nice San Fran shack with a thrill
Complete with the comfort of a suicide pill
Until the time comes, we will join the folks who live in Morgan Hill

Performance Review Time - 2015 Edition

It's the most wonderful time of the year

With budgets out drying

And everyone trying to cover their rears

It's the most wonderful time of the year

It's the hap happiest season of all

With morality beatings from higher up meetings

And fate coming to call

It's the hap happiest season of all

There'll be quartile ranking

Some bonus pay yanking

And quarreling out in the halls

If the stock price is tanking

Prepare for a spanking

Though it’s really not your fault at all

It's the most wonderful time that comes around

There'll be so much ass kissing

That Covergirl’s issuing

A new shade of brown

It's the most wonderful time that comes around

There'll be parity checking

Much pain in the necking

With bureaucracy reigning supreme

There’ll be legal reviews

And diversity shmoos

To the point you will just want to scream

It's the most wonderful time of the year

With budgets out drying

And everyone trying to cover their rears

It's the most wonderful time

Yes your pay raise is only a dime

Oh the most wonderful time of the year
