Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When your worker's crossing borders, heading to another land
Social security coverage needs a helping hand
Don't memorize the numbers, that's not how we play
Just search CPT and the country name, you'll find your way

[Chorus]
Forty-nine to seventy-two, original treaty crew
One-eleven to seventy-three, newer partners too
Eight thirteen sixteen seventeen, admin forms you see
CPT country codes, cross-border guarantee

[Verse 2]
Employee going abroad or foreign worker coming here
Which country's system covers them? Let's make it crystal clear
The forms exist for one thing, certification's the game
To prove which social security system stakes the claim

[Chorus]
Forty-nine to seventy-two, original treaty crew
One-eleven to seventy-three, newer partners too
Eight thirteen sixteen seventeen, admin forms you see
CPT country codes, cross-border guarantee

[Bridge]
Coverage applications, religious exemptions too
Administrative forms are there to help you through
Don't stress about the numbers, alphabetical they run
Within their ranges roughly, search and you are done

[Verse 3]
When borders blur and workers move from nation unto nation
CPT forms provide the proper documentation
Never need to memorize, just know the pattern's there
Search by country name and find the form with care

[Final Chorus]
Forty-nine to seventy-two, original treaty crew
One-eleven to seventy-three, newer partners too
Eight thirteen sixteen seventeen, admin forms you see
CPT country codes, cross-border guarantee

[Outro]
Cross-border workers covered, that's the CPT way
Search the country name and you'll be set today
