Had Talbot, Had Talbot
He works from sun to sun––
In London and in Hong Kong too,
His work is never done.

Had Talbot, Had Talbot
He likes to get his way––
But really, he's an all-right guy,
He lets you have your say.

Had Talbot, Had Talbot
Our friend of 50 years––
We recognize your leadership
With champagne and good cheer.

Had Talbot, Had Talbot
Our company is eighth––
But in the long run, watch, says he,
We won't be second place.

Had Talbot, Had Talbot
The President of JEC––
We are your faithful, gentle folk––
Bob Rossi, Paul Hansen and Schneck

And Anita and Dick and Hermina and Tim and
George and Diana and Diane and Michael and
Belinda and David and Rick and Michael and
Sean and Manny and Elaine and Sue and Hamish
and John and Nick and Philippa and Mark and
all the rest of us who want to

Wish you happiness on your birthday
And for many years to come.
