Lyrics
Check the case, check the case, check the light, every
detail's in it right,
tools ready, mind steady, when the call comes
in, we're always ready,
hands clean, notes clear,
we bring the fix when the answer's here,
tools ready, mind steady, when the call comes in, we're always ready, comes in
we're always ready
we're always ready Yeah, yeah,
Meter on the bench, batteries in a row
Labels on the door so the whole team knows
Read the service notes, circle what it says
Trace the little fault before it spreads
Folks said right, connectors lined
One more look with the practice mind
No loose ends hiding under the tray
We make the problem, give his name away
Step by step, check by check
Calm hands never miss a speck
When the signal starts to fade
We find the path and make it stay
Tools ready, all set, mind steady
When the call comes in, we're always ready
Hands clean, notes clear, notes clear
We bring the fix when the answer's here
Tools ready, tools ready, mind steady
When the call comes in, we're always ready
Check it twice, keep it steady, keep it steady
The work travels when the details are ready
Car rolls out with the right supply
Fresh test lead and a reason why
Ask the user what they saw and heard
Turn the story into useful words
Swap one part then test the chain
Document the results so it stays explained
Pass it forward clean and clear
Reliable work is why they call us here
Step by step, check by check
Comments never miss a speck
When the signal starts to fade
We find the path and make it stand
Tools ready, tools ready
Mind steady When the call comes in
We're always ready Hands clean
Notes clean Notes clear
Notes clear Bring the fix when the answer's here
Tools ready, tools ready, mind steady
When the call comes in, we're always ready
When the room gets busy, we slow it down
Put the facts together, turn the noise around
One good question, one clear plan
Build it back stronger than it began
Check the power, check the lead, oh
Find the cause to meet the need, oh
Write it down, close the loop
Every careful step improves the groove
Tools ready, mind steady, mind steady
When the call comes in,
always ready.
Hands clean, notes clean, notes clear, notes clear.
We bring the fix when the answer's here.
Tools ready, mind steady, mind steady.
When the call comes in, we're always ready.
Tools ready, tools ready, mind steady, mind steady.
When the call comes in, always ready.
When the call comes in, always ready
When the call comes in, always ready
When the call comes in, always ready
Tools ready. Mind steady.
When the call comes in, we're always ready.
Ready, ready. Check it twice.
Keep it steady. Ready.
Tools ready. Mind steady.
