They are having a talent show where I work. I would like to sing this song acapella, to the tune of the Beatle's Yesterday.
| Code: |
Yesterday, all my abends seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they are here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Suddenly, I'm not half the programmer I used to be
There's a layoff hanging over me.
Oh, the abend came suddenly
Why it had a wild branch, I don't know the dump wouldn't say
The code did something wrong, now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, debugging was such an easy way to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Why it had a wild branch, I don't know the dump wouldn't say
The code did something wrong, now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, debugging was such an easy way to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm |
I welcome any critic of word choices, new buzzwords that should be used, or any suggestions for additional verses, etc. |

A small try, see if it rhymes well according to you...  :

| Why it had a wild branch, I don't know the dump wouldn't say |
| Quote: |
| Why it had to abend, I don't know the dump wouldn't say |
And

Yes, with some computer jargon thrown in. Maybe something about Agile or scrum. |

The scrum-master keeps asking for status every day.
I will keep trying until I find a way. |

Perhaps a little easier. The "m-m" is a bit of a pig. Perhaps drop the The and the -?

I'm not implying anything by this, Pedro, I think you still have it :-) |
