[FINCH, spoken]
Mr. Twimble, you've been with this company a long time, haven't you?

[TWIMBLE, spoken]
Long, long time
Just last month, I became a quarter-of-a-century man

[FINCH, spoken]
Why that's beautiful
Gee, a quarter of a century
And how long have you been in the mail room?

[TWIMBLE, spoken]
Twenty-five years
Yep, it takes a combination of skill, diplomacy and bold caution

[TWIMBLE]
When I joined this firm
As a brash young man
Well, I said to myself
"Now, brash young man
Don't get any ideas"
Well, I stuck to that
And I haven't had one in years

[FINCH, spoken]
You play it safe
[TWIMBLE]
I play it the company way
Wherever the company puts me
There I'll stay

[FINCH]
But what is your point of view?

[TWIMBLE]
I have no point of view

[FINCH]
Supposing the company thinks

[TWIMBLE]
I think so too

[FINCH, spoken]
Uh, what would you say?

[TWIMBLE, spoken]
I wouldn't say

[FINCH]
Your face is a company face
[TWIMBLE]
It smiles at executives
Then goes back in place

[FINCH]
The company furniture?

[TWIMBLE]
Oh, it suits me fine

[FINCH]
The company letterhead is—

[TWIMBLE]
A valentine

[FINCH, spoken]
Is there anything you're against?

[TWIMBLE, spoken]
Unemployment

[FINCH]
When they want brilliant thinking
From employees
[TWIMBLE]
That is no concern of mine

[FINCH]
Suppose a man of genius
Makes suggestions?

[TWIMBLE]
Watch that genius get suggested to resign

[FINCH]
So you play it the company way?

[TWIMBLE]
All company policy is by me okay

[FINCH]
You'll never rise up to the top

[TWIMBLE]
But there's one thing clear
Whoever the company fires
I will still be here

[FINCH, spoken]
You've certainly found a home!

[TWIMBLE, spoken]
It's cozy

[FINCH]
Your brain is a company brain

[TWIMBLE]
The company washed it
And now I can't complain

[FINCH]
The company magazine?

[TWIMBLE]
Boy, what style, what punch!

[FINCH]
The company restaurant?

[TWIMBLE]
Every day, same lunch

[TWIMBLE, spoken]
Their haddock sandwich, it's delicious

[FINCH, spoken]
I must try it

[TWIMBLE, spoken]
Early in the week

[FINCH]
Do you have any hobbies?

[TWIMBLE]
I've a hobby
I play gin with Mr. Bratt

[FINCH]
And do you play it nicely?

[TWIMBLE]
Play it nicely
Still, he blitzes me in every game, like that!

[FINCH, spoken]
Why?

[TWIMBLE]
'Cause I play it the company way
Executive policy is by me okay

[FINCH]
How can you get anywhere?

[TWIMBLE]
Junior, have no fear
Whoever the company fires
I will still be here

[FINCH]
You will still be here

[TWIMBLE]
Year after year after fiscal

[TWIMBLE & FINCH]
Never take a risk all year!
