Bob Hitchcock Lyr & Tune Req: Sarbanes-Oxley Blues (12) Lyr Add: SARBANES-OXLEY BLUES 03 Mar 04


Hey, I found the Lyrics below, no tune but then it's a blues!

Bob


My audit costs are rising
My D&O is due
My bottom line's falling more behind
I got the Sarbanes-Oxley blues

Board of directors resigning
My auditor's front page news
My CFO's calling in from Rio
I got the Sarbanes-Oxley blues

I used to know lots of CEOs talking sweet on CNBC
But your numbers miss and your stock price slips
Mr. Spitzer you're bound to see

Perp walk in lower Manhattan
They took the laces out of my shoes
Where on earth is Leavenworth?
I got the Sarbanes-Oxley blues

I really miss the good ol' days
When I told my board what to do
Now my audit committee is slapping me silly
I got the Sarbanes-Oxley blues

20 years rise above my peers sacrificing everything
Now the handcuff's bite keeps me up at night
Close as I'll get to the brass ring

My audit costs are rising
My D&O is due
My bottom line's falling more behind
I got the Sarbanes-Oxley blues
