Slow day at work - we had a Valentine's day poetry competition - this was the only one that didn't start "Roses are red, violets are blue"
Love is Super
You and me we work so well -
When we're together the world's just swell.
But Valentine, who I love so,
There's something you really ought to know...
When I say I'm working late
Accounting stuff I calculate
It's not the overheads I'm trimming
But super villains and bad women.
Sweetheart, your accountant zero,
Really is a superhero
I fight bad guys in the night.
That's why my underwear is tight.
You and me we work the best,
Except when I am on a quest,
Flying supersonic through the skies
To confront nefarious bad guys.
I'm known as The Accountantman
My costume's grey, with dabs of tan;
My cloak is right for what I'm doing
And came half price from T M Lewin.
Sweetheart, your accountant zero,
Really is a superhero
I will stop monstrosity
And be home in time for tea.
If I've finished all my recs
I'll go and conquer Doctor X.
When Mephisto starts being crass it's
Time to put aside fixed assets.
I live for dangers to be faced.
Not audit points that can't be traced
But real peril from evil schemers
Who can never come between us.
Sweetheart, your accountant zero,
Really is a superhero.
Sorry that I didn't tell
I thought it not material.
The world's in danger of destruction:
I can make a tax deduction
For the cost of what I'll do -
Then take off the time in lieu.
I'm on my way, don't despair -
I've discovered Evil's secret lair.
After I have nailed the crooks
I'll be at my desk to do the books.
Sweetheart, your accountant zero,
Really is a superhero.
I wear tights inside my pants
And I'm a whizz at high finance.
