Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When money moves through company doors
Two sets of eyes must check what's yours
No single person holds the key
That's dual control security
One thousand dollars is the line
Where vendor payments need two to sign

[Chorus]
Two approvals, independent minds
Dual control protects what's mine
Always check the critical flow
New vendors, payroll, accounts below
Two-five-zero for expenses too
Authorization, me and you

[Verse 2]
Creating vendors needs a pair
New bank routing handled with care
Employee joining payroll team
Always requires the double scheme
Off-cycle runs can't go alone
Two signatures before they're shown

[Chorus]
Two approvals, independent minds
Dual control protects what's mine
Always check the critical flow
New vendors, payroll, accounts below
Two-five-zero for expenses too
Authorization, me and you

[Bridge]
Journal entries adjusting books
Always need those second looks
Thresholds configurable and smart
But separation is the art
Independence is the key
No collusion, you and me

[Verse 3]
Significant transactions wait
For dual approval at the gate
One person's bias can't decide
When company assets are applied
The table shows us when to pause
Following financial control laws

[Chorus]
Two approvals, independent minds
Dual control protects what's mine
Always check the critical flow
New vendors, payroll, accounts below
Two-five-zero for expenses too
Authorization, me and you

[Outro]
When in doubt, get two to see
That's the way it's meant to be
Dual control will always guard
Against the fraud that hits so hard
