Boeing CEO to step down after FAA probe

We hope you will accept our kudos, gratitude and thanks

For your years of service to the hedge funds and the banks

When things got tough you never flinched or headed for the fences,

You did the thing that you do best, you just cut more expenses

Boeing’s profits reached the sky under your steady hands

And thanks to you, it’s true that almost every Boeing lands.

So now and then a piece might loosen up or come unglued

Or fall apart in flight because it wasn’t ever screwed,

If there’s a little nut or bolt, a rivet, pin or sprocket

That you can just eliminate, it’s money in your pocket. 

Or better, you can do without the guy who holds the wrench

And sell planes cheaper than the English and the French.

So head for greener pastures! We offer our salute!

And if you plan on flying, here’s a golden parachute.
