Do–re–mi

Let’s start at the very beginning
A very good place to start
Now in most jobs you start on a salary
In museums at first you work for free
Work for free?
The first three years are voluntary
Work for free?

(spoken) Let’s see if I can make it easy…

Dough, I fear, we lack my dears
Raids from elsewhere left us short
Meetings on more budget cuts
Far, far worse than I had thought
So forget what I have said
Laugh as if you didn’t know
Teetering right on the edge
And it all comes back to dough…

(spoken) Now, meetings and budgets and so on are only the tools we use to build a service. Once you have the notes in your heads, you can sing a million different tunes by mixing them up. Like this…

When you know the notes to sing
You can get project funding
