Your Way

(a parody of “My Way”)

And now, we’re standing here,
The end of months of planning.
My friends, I have a fear
This isn’t good, notwithstanding

We mapped out every choice,
From Argentina up to Norway
Thanks to the loudest voice
We did it your way

Mistakes, they did abound
Too many now to tally.
The bridges we burned down
Could blind the whole Willamette Valley

There was no way to change
You stood and blocked us in the doorway
So now, we look deranged
We did it your way

Yes, it was wrong, we know it now
Yet you persis-ted anyhow
And through it all, you were head strong
Providing schemes boneheaded wrong
It’s all mucked up, so buckle up
We did it your way

We paid in pain our dues
The finish line our target
Alas the big issue –
No product ready for the market

Mistakes we did not see
So now we’re headed down the poor way
Oh why did we agree
To do it your way?

There wasn’t a plan, that’s very clear
The headlights blinded us, my dear
We bought into your bad advice
So now we all will pay the price
A dreadful slip, a sinking ship
We did it your way

Yes, we did it your way
