The First Timesheet

So I was putting together a timesheet template and coming so soon after Christmas, there are still carols leaking out of my brain.

For the record, none of this is based on my current situation. Though ask me again after I start submitting these, and we’ll see how it’s going.

To the first timesheet, the client did say
“I don’t remember approving those hours on thursday”
So I went to my desk and put the timesheets away
till I could find my meeting notes and reclaim my pay.

Timesheet, Timesheet.
Timesheet, Timesheet.
If they would just sign it, things would be so neat.

I’m updating my invoice, to make Thursday look fine
Figure if I just change it, they might stop the whine.
Sure I’m out a few hours but if I draw a line
The next seat they get rid of will surely be mine.

Timesheet, Timesheet.
Timesheet, Timesheet.
If I just get paid, won’t this contract be sweet.

I think the changes are done, now to save revision three
So the new version is done, just need a hardcopy
Wonder if this time, the client will hide from me
Cause if I can’t get this signed I won’t get my fee.

Timesheet, Timesheet.
Timesheet, Timesheet.
If they would just sign it, things would be so neat.
