--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Intro]
The customer :
"This won't work. Find me another."
The owner :
"Don’t have time? Then stay up all night tonight.
You couldn't finish this thing by now! Then, what are we supposed to do?"
The boss :
"This is too mediocre, we need something different here, something more interesting and more hip."
"Oh, just Stop, I don't want to hear it any more!"
[1st part]
customers who just keep demanding,
my neck that gets as stiff as a piece of wood,
the owner who keeps telling us to work until morning with no sleep,
and, gosh, just leaves the office as soon as he finishes his talk,
a junior colleague who says, "i found a better place to work."
all in all, my work gets doubled,
my boss who blames me for not understanding what he says,
my heart, which gets crushed one more time,
we developers who keep living a hard life all the time,
coworkers ask me, "do you see any future by working your ass off everyday?"
i wonder if i will ever be the one who finishes laughing.
my only wish, my only wish is,
By now, I need to have a life
as perfect as the software I created.
I will arm myself, because that is the only way to put an end to this boring life.
I will invest in myself, because that is the only way
that I can refresh myself and be ahead of others.
[2nd part]
I have lots of stuff I put off, even though I wanted to complete.
However, the damn "coding" stopped me from doing it.
The hunger that I tormented me while working nights.
The desperation that I got after knowing I lost all the coding work that I put in.
Now, things have changed.
Take the opportunity for taking my idea to fly high.
The VS 2005 is finally reborn,
as the beacon for software developers dreaming freedom.
You do not call me a coder any more for god's sake,
because we keep striving to be part of a larger world.
Since I have a brand-new design right here in my hand,
I can now embrace the whole future, using my whole body,
for you and me
for you and me.
We are proud of being developers leading this world.
And We will take the flowers of hope to fruition, even bigger than ever before.
[Bridge x 4]
Visual / Studio / Team / System
[Chorus]
I will arm myself, because that is the only way to put an end to this boring life.
I will invest in myself, because that is the only way
that I can refresh myself and be ahead of others.
[Outro]
"Are you done for the day? Then, how about have some beer?"
"This looks fantastic! Why don't we stick with this?
"Which program do you use, sir?"
