The Lyrics
FedEx has a new commercial called "Camper Scouts". A man who owns a sustainable camp supply store becomes popular because of a scouting troop. After a FedEx worker comes into his store, the scouting troop cheers her on. When I first saw this commercial, I immediately thought of a 1951 episode of "Beat the Clock" that featured 300 Boy Scouts. I've included a link referencing this episode below, and--well, I'll just let the link tell it. This parody is inspired by one of my favorite all-time songs.
Let's use FedEx for every little thing
For any little thing at all
Use FedEx for what the day may bring
It will help if my store should fall
A scout troop just broke our server's floor,
They took a picture with their phones,
With FedEx, a worker's at my door
To help me with my job and throne,
Remember, in 1951,
A group of Boy Scouts saw "Roxanne",
The woman who brought them so much fun
On "Beat the Clock", they cheered as fans,
With FedEx, our store is back in strife
The scout troop is cheering the staff
Use FedEx to help you with your life
They'll help you with your children's math!
For any little thing at all
Use FedEx for what the day may bring
It will help if my store should fall
A scout troop just broke our server's floor,
They took a picture with their phones,
With FedEx, a worker's at my door
To help me with my job and throne,
Remember, in 1951,
A group of Boy Scouts saw "Roxanne",
The woman who brought them so much fun
On "Beat the Clock", they cheered as fans,
With FedEx, our store is back in strife
The scout troop is cheering the staff
Use FedEx to help you with your life
They'll help you with your children's math!
