Moderately

Fros-ty the Audi- tor was as mean as he could be, with a

Fros- ty the Audi- tor came to see us all one day, due to

cold-eyed stare and a lap - top bag he worked for the S E C.

off -shore subs and rev - rec flubs he vowed to make us pay. There

Frosty the Auditor

must have been some ma - gic in our C F O’s last plan, for

when he ran it past the Feds, he got six years in the can.

Trad. Frosty the Snow Man

The Silicon Valley SongSlowly

Start - ups boast-ing in our o - pen foyer NAS -DAQ up from its

buy - ers wo-ken from their doze, ev’ ry bod - y knows a biz plan and some

lows, “Bil - lings way up!” cried out by a lawyer, and

seed-round dough gets them “up and to the right.” ’Vest-ment bank-ers have

passed from their woe and see their ex -its back in sight.

Trad. The Christmas Song

Recruiting WonderlandModerately, with a lilt

Alarm bells ring, what’s the mat - ter? Ref’rence checks say he’s mad

wel- come to re - crui- ting won- der- land. Gone a-

as a hatter, they say there’s no doubt, our candidate’s a lout,

way is the last guy, his C V was a big lie, his

“blue chip” de- gree was bought for a fee,

wel-come to re - crui - ting won- der - land.

Trad. Winter Wonderland

We three Joes from O - ma - ha are; spend-ing Christ-mas

week in our car; drive the highway to Sand Hill by way we

seek fun - ding from a - far. O pitch to On - set,

blur’ing my speech is slur’ing from pitch - ing for our Ser - ies B.

We Three Joes

pitch K P, pitch to Men - lo, pitch Mohr D, my vi - sion’s

Trad. We Three Kings

Over Our Budget and Through Our Cash

Brightly

O - ver our bud-get and through our cash we wan-na go I - P

will help us go - o! O - ver our bud-get and through our

O, but it seems that the trouble is now it’s post-bubble, and no one

cash our bal - ance sheet’s so low, ’stead of corp’ rate jets and

moun-ting debts we shoulda hi - r’d a C E O!

Trad. Over the River and Through the Woods

Moderately

O lit - tle town of Men - lo Park ’neath moun - tain peaks so -

deep; where bright i - deas get star - ted and add to Val - ley lore; the

steep; dis - burs-ing dough so start - ups grow thanks to your poc-kets

hopes and dreams of start - up teams are met by thee once more.

O Little Town ofMenlo Park

Trad. O Little Town of Bethlehem
