Now for a Jackson reforms-themed Christmas sing-a-long
Working in a Mitchell Wonderland
All your cases, are dying;
And your cli-ents are crying.
You’ve won (or you’ve lost),
But you won’t get your costs!
Working in a Mitchell wonderland
Every rule we must follow;
Do it now, not tomorrow.
Just a day late,
But you’ve sealed your fate.
Working in a Mitchell wonderland
[Chorus]
The Partners tell us “keep on billing”,
Charging every ho-ur that we do.
Guys you know we’re able, and we’re willing,
But we’ve even started billing on the loo!
CFAs? We don’t need ’em;
DBAs? No one seen ’em.
But if you’re doing fine,
(Thank-God you’re not in crime!)
Working in a Mitchell wonderland
Budgeting is demanded;
It’s very even-handed.
It’s not just celebs,
It’s for all of you plebs.
Working in a Mitchell wonderland
[Chorus]
Best bit of the year was so-called ‘PlebGate’,
When he wouldn’t take directions from a cop.
His work was too important, to make him wait,
But it seems that ‘PC Pleb’ came out on top.
In the end, Dyson saved us;
From the ma-adness he gave us.
But it won’t be too long,
‘Til the say “Denton’s wrong!”
And we’ll be working in a Mitchell wonderland
Working in a Mitchell wonderland
