A Holiday Ballad From The ChoCo Puffs

Written by Tori Cook | Dec 03, 2019

Attendance, riser charts, email lists, oh my! Don't you wish you could just kiss spreadsheets goodbye? Now you can, with Chorus Connection.

Hear from our employee choir, "The ChoCo Puffs," in this parody of Joni Mitchell's "River," most recently inspired by Ben Platt's rendition featured in The Politician. #plattfans

 

 

 

"Platform" Lyrics

It’s concert season. Oh, read your emails, please.

We’re sending out practice tracks and a note from your trustees.

Oh, I wish we had a platform we could all rely on.

 

But I’ve got spreadsheets; they bring me to my knees.

I’ve gotta update four more lists and sort 'em S, A, T, and B.

Oh, I wish we had a platform we could all rely on.

 

Oh, I wish we had a platform so strong,

I could kiss spreadsheets goodbye!

Oh, I wish we had a platform we could all rely on.

These details make me cry!

 

The board they try to help me, their overworked E.D.

But they don’t have solutions; I need some kind of relief.

Oh, I wish we had a platform we could all rely on.

 

This roster’s hard to manage with a pencil and a pad.

Lost track of the best tenor that we ever had

Oh, I wish we had a platform we could all rely on.

 

I wish we had a platform so strong,

I could kiss spreadsheets goodbye!

Oh, I wish we had a platform we could all rely on.

These details make me cry!

 

It’s concert season. Oh, read your emails, please.

We’re sending out practice tracks and a note from your trustees.

Oh, I wish we had a platform we could all rely on.
