Lyrics
There is a cake in the break room With a candle shaped like a seven Our boss is doing a little speech And the coffee is lukewarm Everybody is clapping Everybody is clapping Thank you, Gary, for forty years Of fixing the printer and the jokes Thank you, Gary, for forty years We will miss you, hey Cut the cake, raise a cup Sing it loud, sing it up Thank you, Gary, for forty years We will miss you every day He taught me how to tie a tie He taught me where to hide a snack He says it is time to go fishing now And he is grinning ear to ear Everybody is clapping Everybody is clapping Thank you, Gary, for forty years Of fixing the printer and the jokes Thank you, Gary, for forty years We will miss you, hey Cut the cake, raise a cup Sing it loud, sing it up Thank you, Gary, for forty years We will miss you every day He picks up his box And he waves at the door We all stand up And we do not want him to go Thank you, Gary, for forty years Of fixing the printer and the jokes Thank you, Gary, for forty years We will miss you, hey Cut the cake, raise a cup Sing it loud, sing it up Thank you, Gary, for forty years Go catch a big one, Gary
