the first one to come to mind is "big boss man".  but your boss may not be
happy with the lyrics.  you could, however, take a whack at writing some of
your own verses to it, that were both relevant to your own organization, and
funny to boot.  likely to be a crowd pleaser.

i was at a jam once where the host band's front man had a bunch of people
from the office in the audience.  he was very good at making up blues lyrics
on the fly, and he sang a long impromptu blues that had a verse about everyone
in attendance.  they loved it.
