‘Twas a mere year ago that I began my journey at zu. The greatest company I’ll ever work for with the loveliest buncha folks you could stumble upon in this world, from a province I hold dear in my heart. Here’s a little tribute to all you zu peeps out there:
Written, Composed, Performed by MC, World Premiere Performance, Summer Solstice, Saskatoon, June 25, 2005
“Dear Mum and Dad”
(The tune is somewhat recognizable if you have a pulse, lest we forget… it has a striking resemblance to a slightly familiar tune, some song called “A Day In Life”… – I think some band ripped off my riff.)
I got a job today, oh boy.
zu dot com is my place of employ.
My first day was an event,
perhaps an indication of how-my-days-will-be-spent.
Important business came that day,
off to the boardroom to choose our N-C-double-A.
There was a condom on my chair.
…that’s cool…. thanks?….
My desk is simple, no bling-bling.
Oh no, wait, we’re movin’ ya down to the west wing.
Down there music volume’s high, never low,
temperature’s cool with a nice, even air flow.
Oh yeah, one thing that I forgot:
people here seem to like music a whole hell of a lot.
Well that’s alright cause so do I,
perhaps I’ll join a band, give that a try.
…. maybe… that’s why… I got this…. role….
Oh, no, no, wait – it’s cause my dad’s: Bob Cole….
So mum and dad, things here are comin’ along.
