[Verse]
   A
 A-nother bloody meeting

     A                  D
The third or fourth to-day

  A
A-nother bloody manager

     E7
With nothing much to say

   A
I don’t know how much more of this

     D             D7
That I can bloody take

     A
I’ve heard so many buzzwords

    A         E7    A
My head’s be-gun to ache
[Chorus]
      A
This could have been an email

    A               E7
But no, you had to meet

     D                A
You could have sent a message

   E7          A
Or even just a Tweet!
[Verse]
     A
The Managing Director

    A                  D
Has things he wants to share

   A
He doesn’t seem to realize

     E7
That we don’t bloody care

      A
Don’t want to know his targets

     D                D7
Or a-bout the bottom line

      A
Just shut your mouth and tell us how

      A       E7       A
We’ll get to lunch on time!
[Chorus]
      A
This could have been an email

But no, you had to meet

     D                A

[Verse]
       A
Oh I’m looking out the window

    A             D
The sun is going down

     A
Who is this bloke who’s on my screen

     E7
Who just can’t come around

       A
To the point that he’s been making

        D              D7
For at least a bloody hour?

      A
If he doesn’t shut up pretty soon

         A        E7    A
We’ll be working after hours
[Chorus]
      A
This could have been an email

    A               E7
But no, you had to meet

     D                A
You could have sent a message

[Verse]
    A
Oh could it be the end’s in sight

     A               D
He’s shown his final slide

    A
But now it’s Q and A time

      E7
Conf-usion clarified (NOT!)

    A
The cons-ultant ends with these few words

      D               D7
That fill us all with sorrow

      A
“Good night, rest well, enjoy your sleep,

       A       E7    A
We’ll see you all to-morrow!
[Chorus]
      A
This could have been an email

    A               E7
But no, you had to meet

     D                A
You could have sent a message

   E7          A
Or even just a Tweet!
[Post-Chorus]
      A
This SHOULD have been an email

    A               E7
But no, you had to meet

     D                A
You could have sent a message

   E7          A
Or even just a Tweet!
