This is a song I wrote for the company Christmas Party 2012 (Motorola Solutions Denmark). It was actually called Motocare - and was suggested by my dear colleagues in H.R. "Motocare looks after us" became "H.R looks after us" in this version on iCompositions to make it fit most companies.
Let me say that the lyrics ended up a bit more ironic than H.R. anticipated.
Unfortunately, in most large companies - H.R. does not really care much about the individual. Their work is just pure administration and bureaucracy.
And I bet the lyrics fit many of the companies you guys work in.

H.R. Looks After Us Lyrics and Music (C) 2012 Kenneth Lavrsen
Standard Procedures With ties strapped round our hands and feet Nightmare of travels For hours long in a monkey seat
When your boss is mad When you're feeling sad There's hope for you Yes it's true
CHORUS H.R looks after us in every way Balancing our work with our lives Your heart rate is being monitored every day We have kids day and we can get high fives
Open landscapes Noise so loud it makes you want to scream Annoying colleagues Shouting loud letting out the steam
When you cannot think When you need a shrink There's help for you Yes it's true
CHORUS
Crashing computers And a network slower than a slug Endless, useless meetings On a conference bridge where no one gives a hug
When nothing useful exists On the supplier lists There's hope for you Yes it's true
