Deadlines

By Francisco Rangel and Cam Boyes

(To the tune of "Basket Case " by Green Day)

Running out of time
Got software to refine
But deadline's getting closer and
I must rush
I am one of those
Big workaholic fools
Who love the taste of sweat
Can't live without it

Sometimes I don't get sleep for weeks
Cause I've got deadlines I must meet
The bugs keep piling up
The deadline's coming up
Will I release on time
Or will I postpone?

I went to my boss
He analyzed my thoughts
He says it's lack of work
That's bringing me down
I went to my wife
She said to get a life
And quit programming cause
It's bringing her down

Sometimes I camp at work for weeks
Cause that promotion's meant for me
But all this climbing up
The corporate ladder sucks
I guess I'll write some code
Uh, yuh, yuh, ya

Caffeine for my soul
And I'd better code on

I dream of work when I'm asleep
I get no rest as you can see
The bugs keep piling up
The program's locking up
Will I release on time
Or will I postpone?
