Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sarah screens resumes with checkboxes neat
Every question answered before they meet
Marcus documents each interview note
Structured questions that the lawyers wrote
When complaints arrive at their office door
Evidence speaks louder than before

[Chorus]
Paper trails protect us, screen and document well
Structure every question, let the records tell
SHED your worries - Screen, Honor, Evaluate, Defend
Defensible decisions never bend
Paper trails protect us till the end

[Verse 2]
Rating scales from one to five
Keep evaluations clear and bright
Never scribble "bad cultural fit"
Write specific skills that didn't hit
Timestamps matter, signatures too
Audit-ready records see you through

[Chorus]
Paper trails protect us, screen and document well
Structure every question, let the records tell
SHED your worries - Screen, Honor, Evaluate, Defend
Defensible decisions never bend
Paper trails protect us till the end

[Bridge]
Human rights investigators knock
Employment standards want to talk
Internal audits scrutinize
But documented truth never lies
Structured systems shield from blame
Every candidate gets treatment the same

[Chorus]
Paper trails protect us, screen and document well
Structure every question, let the records tell
SHED your worries - Screen, Honor, Evaluate, Defend
Defensible decisions never bend
Paper trails protect us till the end

[Outro]
When the gavel falls and verdicts swing
Proper documentation is everything
SHED those fears away
Defensible hiring wins the day
