Accountants are so annoying (in rhyme)

He sits at his desk 

With his horn-rimmed specs 

Doing sums on a calculator 

And come rain or shine 

You know bloody fine 

There's a bill to pay sooner or later. 

He adds and subtracts 

And works out your tax 

Messing about with the figures. 

You've done fairly well 

So how in the hell 

Is that overdraft still gettin' bigger? 

Those accounts are too much 

It's all double dutch 

So you 'phone up for him to explain. 

But his office PA says 'haven't you heard' 

He's away in his office in Spain."
