About, in the corporate world, getting someone to "take one for the team"...

lyrics

There’s a game to play, there’s a game to win
There’s a destination, there’s a wheel to spin
Who will lead us on, take one for the team?
Who will sacrifice, so we achieve the dream?

Listen, listen, listen, who’ll go out and swing the bat?
Forwards, forwards, forwards, one of you must bell the cat
Who has got the fire? Who has got the fire?

You know that times are hard, you know that things are tough
Funds are limited, people not enough
But our little task, must fight through to complete
And I’ll hold the fire to your tender feet

Listen, listen, listen, who’ll go out and swing the bat?
Forwards, forwards, forwards, one of you must bell the cat
Surely there’s someone, someone right here
Do you understand, am I being clear?
Who has got the fire? Who has got the fire?

I’ve been here before, I know how this is done
Someone has to go, I am not the one
Keep moving forwards men, I cry from the rear
Glory awaits you boys, more than mortals mere
They will fete you, sing of you in song
Flowers on your grave, just you go along

Listen, listen, listen, who’ll go out and swing the bat?
Forwards, forwards, forwards, one of you must bell the cat


No-one is leaving, leaving this room
Someone step forward, don’t make me assume
Time for somebody to crawl from the womb

Don’t look at me like that, off you go, bell the cat
