[Verse 1] In boardrooms where decisions shape our fate Military minds and civilian skills debate Two different worlds with expertise to share One knows the field, one knows the office chair But when we blend these forces into one The mission gets much better things done [Chorus] Flex the workforce, mix and match the crew Military discipline with civilian view Efficiency blooms when talents interweave Flexible forces help us all achieve Bench-mark globally, see what others do Strong foundations built by both, not few [Verse 2] A colonel's strategy meets an analyst's chart While sergeants train beside the coding art The uniform and business suit align Creating systems that are by design More adaptable when crisis calls our name Two perspectives playing the same game [Chorus] Flex the workforce, mix and match the crew Military discipline with civilian view Efficiency blooms when talents interweave Flexible forces help us all achieve Bench-mark globally, see what others do Strong foundations built by both, not few [Bridge] Look to allies across the ocean blue How do they structure what their people do? Australia blends, Britain innovates While Nordic countries demonstrate That rigid walls just slow the pace Flexibility wins the race [Verse 3] From cyber threats to budget planning tasks Each role requires what different training asks The soldier brings commitment tried and true The civilian brings a different point of view Together they're a force that can't be beat Making Canada's defence complete [Chorus] Flex the workforce, mix and match the crew Military discipline with civilian view Efficiency blooms when talents interweave Flexible forces help us all achieve Bench-mark globally, see what others do Strong foundations built by both, not few [Outro] When crisis comes and systems face the test Flexible teams will always give their best Military-civilian harmony Keeps Canada strong and free
