"Twas the Night before Christmas"


'Twas the Night before Christmas
And all through the company
The workers were scrambling
To hang onto their Money

Management snuggled up
With their Million$ in bed
While visions of more Stock Options
Danced in their head

Every Holiday brings
Another "Sincerely Dave" Letter
How on the backs of the employees
This company be better

"Our Costs are too high"
His letter foretells
How I long for stale cookies and old cheese
From Wolf and Gangwal

My home is for sale
And my children's clothes are in tatters
While in Crystal City
There was uproarious laughter

"Did we ruin their Christmas?
I hope so" said Glass
"And after the New Year
will be the Unions' last gasp"

When what to my wondering
Eyes should appear
but a miniature airplane
called an RJ, our savior

With a little old driver
whose retirement was stolen away
he can't affors to retire
so he's driving this sleigh

More rapid than eagles
these RJ's they came
Dave andJerry whistled and shouted
And called the by name

"Now Cleveland,now Portland
now Allentown,now Erie
Come Pittsburgh,come Charlotte
Oh, what the Hell
Put'em in Philly"

To the top of the world
To the top of the wall
Stash away,stash away

Before the stock price falls
As dry leaves that before
A wild RJ fly

When management meets with an obstacle
"We need more concessions" is their battle cry

Dave's eyes how they twinkle
with every contract he breaks
Retirements, Airbus Checks
Christmas is great

With a wink of his eye
and a twist of his head
another LIE was coming
the worker were filled with dread

He was greedy and a liar
But so Jolly through it all
I guess MILLIONS will do that
You know, a house in the Caribbean and all

And giving the finger
to the employees at U
He jumped in his RJ
All shiny and new

To his team gave a whistle
And away they all flew
To St. Mararten, St. Kitts

And St. Thomas too

But I heard him exclaim
As U shrunk down in size
Merry Christams to all
Thanks for believing my LIES
