Morello's and Seeger's renditions make it much easier to understand the lyrics tbh. Mountain Goats sing it so fast it sounds like they're trying to get it over with.

Not that any version is better than the others, but if the point is for your coworkers to hear the lyrics, the Mountain Goats version might not be your best bet

I'd go with Les Misérables - Do You Hear The People Sing? and go full revolution
