500 Files

500 Files – to be sung to the tune of 500 Miles by The Proclaimers

filing cabinet graphicRetention schedules, well I know they’re gonna be​
They’re gonna be the ones that sort out good from bad​
when I can’t find, when I can’t find that report​
They’ll turn my heart from very sad to very glad​

When in Outlook, well I know I’m gonna drown​
I’m gonna drown in spam, “send to the world” and mess​
But with a file plan I know I’m gonna have​
Less stuff to file and certainly less stress,​

And I would shred five hundred files​
And I would file five hundred more​
Just to clear redundant documents​
And find what I am looking for​
