Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When financial metrics tell just half the tale
And profit margins leave your strategy pale
Four perspectives working hand in hand
Give you vision to help your business expand
From customer value to internal flow
Learning and growth help your knowledge grow

[Chorus]
Four perspectives, balanced view
Financial, Customer, Process too
Learning Growth completes the frame
Scorecard methodology, remember the name
F-C-I-L, that's the way
Balanced measurement every day

[Verse 2]
Financial perspective shows the bottom line
Revenue growth and margins looking fine
But customers hold the keys to success
Satisfaction, retention, loyalty's test
Are we meeting needs and building trust
Customer metrics are absolutely a must

[Chorus]
Four perspectives, balanced view
Financial, Customer, Process too
Learning Growth completes the frame
Scorecard methodology, remember the name
F-C-I-L, that's the way
Balanced measurement every day

[Verse 3]
Internal processes drive the engine strong
Quality, efficiency, nothing goes wrong
Cycle times and defect rates we track
Innovation pipeline keeps us on track
What we do inside affects what they see
Process excellence is the master key

[Bridge]
Learning and Growth, the foundation base
Employee skills and knowledge in place
Training programs and technology tools
Information systems following rules
Capabilities building for tomorrow's fight
Human capital burning bright

[Chorus]
Four perspectives, balanced view
Financial, Customer, Process too
Learning Growth completes the frame
Scorecard methodology, remember the name
F-C-I-L, that's the way
Balanced measurement every day

[Outro]
Strategy maps connecting every link
Cause and effect, now you start to think
Leading measures driving lagging ones
Balanced scorecard, comprehensive runs
Four perspectives, one strategic goal
Performance measurement for the whole
