Oh won’t you sign my NDA,
I need this signed by yesterday.
Sign it here, and sign it there,
Don’t read through, don’t you dare.
Oh won’t you sign my NDA,
I need this signed without delay.
Stop reading all through and through,
Just sign it! Just sign it!
I’d happily sign, if I were you.
You understand technogibberel computerese,
But this is learned jumbly-mumbly legalese.
You’re just a programmer, you can read it all but you won’t understand,
Here’s a bronze rubbed rubber slippery stamp, hold it so and slam down your hand.
Oh just strike that confounding confuddling confusing clause,
Slam it with my bronze rubbed rubber slippery stamp without pause
Stop glancing across clauses in every page,
I can barely contain my roiling rage.
You won’t sign? You won’t complete?
We’ll simply strike that non-compete.
Hurry, Hurry the day grows late,
Just ignore that part, that’s boiler plate.
Don’t worry about what all 12 pages say,
Just accept my standard NDA.
And now you mention a rate I have to beat?
It will be your loss if our minds can’t meet.
I’m willing to adjust a small term or two,
Because I would never hoodwink you.
And finally, now the signing is complete,
Down here by the door on Market St.
