Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Your continuity plan sits on the shelf today
Time to scrutinize what it really says
Pull three frameworks from the expert's way
Score each section, see where weakness spreads
Traditional thinking, predictable threats
But black swans laugh at your safety nets

[Chorus]
Gap analysis, framework by framework
Score the weaknesses, mark what won't work
Five assumptions that crumble and fall
When the unexpected comes for us all
Modify, fortify, resilience calls
Gap analysis saves us all

[Verse 2]
Framework one reveals the server dependencies
Framework two exposes vendor fantasies
Framework three unveils communication gaps
When assumptions meet reality's slaps
That supply chain you thought was secure
Won't survive what you can't endure

[Chorus]
Gap analysis, framework by framework
Score the weaknesses, mark what won't work
Five assumptions that crumble and fall
When the unexpected comes for us all
Modify, fortify, resilience calls
Gap analysis saves us all

[Bridge]
Assumption one: your backup site's available
Reality check: pandemic makes it unreachable
Assumption two: staff will show up tomorrow
Reality bites: quarantine brings sorrow
Modify each one, make it antifragile
Keep it simple, keep it agile

[Verse 3]
Third assumption: networks always function
Fourth belief: vendors honor junction
Fifth assumption: cash flow stays steady
Now rebuild each, make your plan ready
Score against frameworks, identify the cracks
Prepare for swans that are painted black

[Chorus]
Gap analysis, framework by framework
Score the weaknesses, mark what won't work
Five assumptions that crumble and fall
When the unexpected comes for us all
Modify, fortify, resilience calls
Gap analysis saves us all

[Outro]
Three frameworks, five assumptions down
Black swan planning wears the crown
Your modified plan stands resilient now
Gap analysis shows you how
