Mr. Guder Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Mister Guder, say Mister Guder
May I have a moment with you?
For there is something I’ve got to say
And please don't let it scare you away

[Verse 2]
Mister Guder, say Mister Guder
I have seen you go through a day
You're everything a robot lives for
Walk in at nine and roll out the door at five

[Chorus]
You reflect the company image
You maintain their rules to live by
Shine your shoes, let’s keep a neat haircut
Now that you're wearing a coat and tie

[Verse 3]
Mister Guder, say Mister Guder
Some day soon you may realise
You've blown your life just playing a game
Where no one wins but everyone stays the same

[Chorus]
You reflect the company image
You maintain their rules to live by
Shine your shoes, let’s keep a neat haircut
Now that you're wearing a coat and tie

[Verse 4]
Mister Guder, say Mister Guder
Some day soon you may realise
You've blown your life just playing a game
Where no one wins but everyone stays the same, sa-a-ame

[Scat Interlude]

[Outro]
Please play your game
Stay the same
