(Richard Carpenter)
Mister Guder, say Mister Guder,
May I have a moment with you,
For there is something I've got to say
and please don't let it scare you away.

Mister Guder, say Mister Guder,
I have seen you go through a day,
You're ev'ry-thing a robot lives for,
walk in at night and roll out the door at five.

You reflect the company image,
you maintain their rules to live by,
Shine your shoes, let's keep a neat haircut
now that you're wearing a coat and tie.

Mister Guder, say Mister Guder,
someday soon you may realize
you've blown your life just playing a game
where no one wins but ev'ry one stays the same.
