KPMG, we're strong as can be
A team of power and energy
We go for the gold
Together we hold onto our vision of global strategy. KPMG, we're strong as can be
A dream of power and energy
We go for the gold
Together we hold onto our vision of global strategy. verse one
We create, we innovate
We pass the ones that are la-a-ate.
A global team, this is our dream of success that we create.
We'll be number one, with effort and fun
Together each of us will run for gold that shines like the sun in our eyes chorus
KPMG, we're strong as can be
A team of power and energy

We go for the gold
Together we hold onto our vision of global strategy. verse two
The time is now to lead the way
We share the same idea that may win by the end of the day
Our strength is here to stay

These are the words that will lead us into our new world. chorus, repeat ad nauseam Send us your anthems or comments about the ones we have.

We have NEVER laughed so hard and so long. Like rubberneckers gawking at a bloody car wreck, we're obsessed with the hideous homogeny of KPMG and cannot stop playing. Until we heard your versions. I cannot see the screen for the tears of laughter in my eyes. As a person in advertising, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

Teutonic galley

Can not help picture a large open space with all those accountants, and at the top, a medieval barbarian managing director shouting as he hits the drum: "KAY, pee, em, gee. KAY, pee, em, gee...".
Someone give the author an award.
