Lyrics The Speed Test - Marc Kudisch feat. Sutton Foster, Anne L. Nathan & Thoroughly Modern Millie Ensemble
Take
a
letter
To
a
Mr.
John
Hudson,
Hudson's
Floor
Wax
You
will
find
an
invoice
in
the
file
for
the
address
Dear
Mr.
Hudson
Colon
My
eyes
are
fully
open
to
my
awful
situation
So
I'm
writing
you
a
letter
to
demand
an
explanation
When
the
floor
wax
that
we
bought
from
you
Arrived
here
Monday
morning
We
discovered
upon
usage
That
the
fumes
should
have
a
warning
Since
the
only
possiblity
is
that
your
wax
is
rancid
I
request
a
full
refund
of
all
the
money
we
advanced
And
unless
you
can
convince
me
you've
improved
the
floor
wax
batter
We
will
take
our
business
elsewhere
so
I
hope
you
solve
this
matter
How's
my
speed
Miss
Dillmount?
A
little
slow
perhaps
Ah
Enclosed
you'll
find
a
small
container
Of
the
stuff
I
talk
about
Just
carefully
remove
the
lid
And
take
a
whiff
if
you've
a
doubt
I'm
sure
you
wouldn't
want
me
to
alert
the
daily
papers
With
the
news
of
how
our
office
was
affected
by
your
vapours
Which
is
why
I
choose
to
write
to
you
a
confidential
letter
Full
of
strong
recommendation
that
you
make
your
floor
wax
better
I
just
hope
it
won't
require
us
to
have
our
floor
relaid
And
if
it
does
you
may
expect
a
bill
Sincerely,
Trevor
Graydon
Now
read
that
back
to
me
please
Certainly
Dear
Mr.
Hudson
Colon
My
eyes
are
fully
open
to
my
awful
situation
So
I'm
writing
you
a
letter
to
demand
an
explanation
When
the

wax
that
we
bought

Arrived

is
that

rancid
I
request
a
full
refund
of
all
the
money
we
advanced
Nice
And
unless
you
can
convince
me
you've
improved
the
floor
wax
batter
We
will
take
our
business
elsewhere
so
I
hope
you
solve
this
matter
Not
half
bad,
continue
please
Enclosed
you'll
find
a
small
container
Of
the
stuff
I
talk
about,
just
carefully
remove
the
lid
And
take
a

Sincerely,
Trevor
Graydon
Miss
Dillmount
May
I
speak
frankly?
Yes?
If
I
could
be
so
lucky
as
to
have
a
good
stenographer
To
keep
this
place
as
up-to-date
As
her
short
skirt
and
bobbed
coiffure
I
wouldn't
have
to
worry
about
our
soured
office
planking
And
could
concentrate
on
generating
profits
ripe
for
banking
That
is
why
I'm
testing
you
with
this
outrageous
correspondence
Which
I
don't
intend
to
actually
mail
to
the
respondents
So
if
you
can
make
sense
of
my
unintelligible
patter
Then
the
job
is
yours,
and
Hudson's
Floor
Wax
really
doesn't
matter
Hudson's
Floor
Wax
doesn't
matter,
matter
Hudson's
Floor
Wax
doesn't
matter
Hudson's
Floor
Wax
doesn't
matter,
matter
Hudson's
Floor
Wax
doesn't
matter
Now,
I
want
that
letter
on
my
desk
in
two
minutes
flat
Man
your
machine,
go!
Time!
