16 You’ve Got a Coworker in Me

“You’ve Got a Coworker in Me”
(Sung to the tune of “You’ve Got a Friend in Me”
from Disney’s Toy Story)

You’ve got a coworker in me.

You’ve got a coworker in me.

When finding evidence,

Gets tough,

And the prosecutor calls you,

Out on your bluff,

You just remember what Athena says:

Apollo, you’ve got a coworker in me.

Yep, you’ve got a coworker in me.

You’ve got a coworker in me.

You’ve got a coworker in me.

You’ve got baggage, and I do, too,

I’m always there to listen to you.

We always work together and find what’s true,

‘Cause you’ve got a coworker in me.

All the other girls may,

Mock and insult you all day,

And say how you’ll die alone,

per se,

But that’s definitely not true,

‘Cause I care about you.

It’s me and you, Apollo.

And as our investigations surely show,

Our friendship will only continue to grow.

I can tell our future’s so bright.

You’ve got a coworker in me.

You’ve got a coworker in me.

You’ve got a coworker in me.

[“I know. I had to clean it last week, as well as every other week before you came.” Apollo wryly retorts. “So it’s only fair that you do it today.”]

[“Fine! But next time Junie wants to hear about you, I’m telling her what Trucy told me about Valentine’s Day last year! How she walked in here and found you on the ground crying and hugging Charley because no girl would go out on a date with you!”]

[“You wouldn’t…!” Apollo growls.]

[“Oh, but I would…” Athena says with a sinister sneer. “And last month when I visited Aura at the detention center, she told me an even better story about a specific time you went to the space center when you were in high school. It was a Friday evening, you had no date, so you decided to corner Ponco and proceeded to -“]

[“Hold it!”]
