Frosty the Analyst Song Parody to Sing This Holiday
Receive free IIBA updates and exclusive content!
This year, we’d like to wish you “Happy Holidays” a little differently…
So, we had these individuals from the Business Analysis community step out of their comfort zone to sing the tale of Frosty the Analyst. This is IIBA’s alternate version of the traditional holiday song, Frosty the Snowman. In our version, Frosty the Analyst is a snowperson and main protagonist who shares their story of the work life of a business analyst including the trials and tribulations of this amazing profession. We hope you like our parody version and share a laugh this holiday season.
The Legend of Frosty the Analyst
We hope it brings a little smile to the face of business analysis professionals everywhere! While our volunteers didn’t all choose to sing in the same key, we feel it adds some more originality and uniqueness to our rendition.
Watch it here and let us know what you think on social. Tag #FrostytheAnalyst
Here’s the lyrics to sing along:
Frosty the Analyst was a jolly happy soul,
With a sharpie pen and some sticky notes
The sprint board comes to life
Frosty the Analyst, is a fairy tale they say,
He was made brilliant, but the PMs know,
How he came to life one day
There must have been some magic in
That laptop that they found,
For when they placed it in his hands
The projects turned around!
Oh, Frosty the Analyst
Was as smart as he could be,
And the stakeholders say he could work and play
Just the same as you and me!
Frosty the Analyst…he’s an asset to every team
With a CBAP cert and great soft skills,
He makes your leaders beam
There must have been some knowledge in
That BABOK book they found
For when they read it to the group
There were CBAP certs all round! Oh!
Frosty the Analyst,
Had to --save another team---
But he waved goodbye saying,
"Don't you cry,
I'll be back again someday"
