And it's code, boys, code
They'll log your every breath
And every day you use this tool you're two days nearer death,
But you code...
Well, I've worked among the server racks and watched the coolers wheeze
Untangling the cables and your fingers like to freeze
Been elbow-deep in malloc heap and paging table churn
Debugging rough, I've seen enough to make your stomach turn.
And it's code, boys, code
They'll log your every breath
And every day you use this tool you're two days nearer death,
But you code...
There's overtime and contract opportunities galore
The kids all love the money and they all come back for more
But soon the NDAs and noncompetes are piled high
And greasy midnight pizza only makes your insides cry.
And it's code, boys, code
They'll log your every breath
And every day you use this tool you're two days nearer death,
But you code...
