It’s fun to charter an accountant
And sail the wide accountancy
To find, explore, the funds offshore
And skirt the shores of bankruptcy
It can be manly in insurance
We’ll up your premium semi-annually
It’s all tax-deductible
We’re fairly incorruptible
We’re sailing on the wide accountancy!
Fiddle away and balance the books
Fiddle away and balance the books
We are the studio accountants
We used computers and the fax
We make them pay every way
And then we'll write it off for tax
Creative agents cannot touch us
And lawyer's are a joke, dear, let's be frank
They'll never ever screw us dear
Let the bastards sue us
We're laughing all the way clear to the bank
Scribble away and balance the books
Scribble away and balance the books
