Some Slack

(to the tune of Footloose)

I don't care for IE,
NetScape is for me,
Now here comes Jane Burke
Saying that it won't work.

I'll start inquiring
If there's some kind of mistake
I won't start firing
I'm gonna give her a break.

This time I'm gonna cut

Slack, some slack
I won't go on the attack
Jill, just chill
Don't let your voice go shrill
Dwight, sit tight
Why let yourself ignite?
Just hold back
Everybody cut some slack

It's hard to believe
And I'm not that naive
There must be some mistake
So I'll keep waiting for some

Someone at Endeavor
To straighten everything out
Till then I'll give her
The benefit of the doubt

I won't shout, I will only cut

Slack, some slack
I won't go on the attack
Nate, just wait
Don't join in the debate
Grin, Kathryn
No point in pitching in
Just hold back
Everybody cut some slack

FIRST - She must have spoken too soon
SECOND - She'll soon be changing her tune
THIRD - Until retractions begin
FOUR - Whooooooooooa, I'm cutting her

Slack, some slack
I won't go on the attack
Jill, just chill
Don't let your voice go shrill
Dwight, sit tight
Why let yourself ignite?
Just hold back
Everybody cut some slack...
