lirik lagu dylan beattie - big rewrite
[intro]
a long, long time ago
i wrote in assembler
and those op codes used to make me smile
i wrote my h~llo world program
in 16 kilobytes of ram
no function calls, no do or for or while
i’d sit all night in rapt frustration
trying new optimizations
forgot to sleep or eat
i would not admit defeat
every change meant more confusion
surrounded by my own delusions
finally came to a conclusion
i’d do a big rewrite
[chorus]
it’s high time we reviewed our design
the code behind our system is just too byzantine
we’ll rewrite all the lеgacy and take it offline
and it’s gonna compile first timе
it’s gonna compile first time
[verse 1]
did you have a bbc
or a commodore, or a vic~20
eight bits wide and slow as h~ll?
or did you start out on the unix scene
or a vms or a pdp
your own account with email and a sh~ll?
well, it’s not like anyone really cares
we all got started out somewhere
a keyboard and a screen
listings in a magazine
we typed those games in, key by key
convinced our code was typo~free
but we knew that eventually
we’d do the big rewrite
[pre~chorus]
we were singin’…
[chorus]
it’s high time we reviewed our design
the code behind our system is just too byzantine
we’ll rewrite all the legacy and take it offline
and it’s gonna compile first time
it’s gonna compile first time
[verse 2]
now for ten years, we’ve been running code
in php to rust and node
but that’s not how it used to be
when i learned to code, it was a different age
turbo pascal was all the rage
and we couldn’t wait to install windows 3
well, 640k of memory
should be enough for anybody
and for multitasking code
you had to run protected mode
you’d work with your bible by your side
peter norton’s ms~dos guide
but you’d already worked out deep inside
you’d do a big rewrite
[pre~chorus]
you started singin’…
[chorus]
it’s high time we reviewed our design
the code behind our system is just too byzantine
we’ll rewrite all the legacy and take it offline
and it’s gonna compile first time
it’s gonna compile first time
[verse 3]
dial~up modem, straining to upload ’em
spitting out sites as fast as we could code ’em
share price high and rising fast
waiting for that big~time ipo
gonna be millionaires, don’t you know
i guess it was all just too good to last
we thought the web was the promised land
coded our html by hand
but when we put it live
it didn’t work in ie5
we started to feel like we were cursed
the dotcom bubble finally burst
and then things went from bad to worse
so we did a big rewrite
[pre~chorus]
we were singin’…
[chorus]
it’s high time we reviewed our design
the code behind our system is just too byzantine
we’ll rewrite all the legacy and take it offline
and it’s gonna compile first time
it’s gonna compile first time
[verse 4]
and there we were shouting out loud
move everything to the cloud
and host it on virtual machines
elastic scale to cope with load
infrastructure built on code
though no~one’s sure what “devops” really means
well, i sat and i watched the counters climb
wishing i got paid overtime
then mongodb failed
guess it wasn’t quite web scale
we lost the whole availability zone
i couldn’t get tech support on the phone
that’s the point when i wish i’d known
they’d done a big rewrite
[pre~chorus]
we were singin’…
[chorus]
it’s high time we reviewed our design
the code behind our system is just too byzantine
we’ll rewrite all the legacy and take it offline
and it’s gonna compile first time
it’s gonna compile first time
[breakdown]
i did my time, i paid my dues
i did my exit interviews
then turned around and walked away
tired of working for the man
i had a dream, i had a plan
this time i would do everything my way
i launched the perfect mvp
online, for all the world to see
working in a new style
fast and lean and agile
i tracked all my feature requests
i wrote my code with unit tests
but then one day… you know the rest
i did the big rewrite
[chorus]
it’s high time we reviewed our design
the code behind our system is just too byzantine
we’ll rewrite all this legacy and take it offline
and it’s gonna compile first time
it’s gonna compile first time
[pre~chorus]
we were singin’…
[outro]
it’s high time we reviewed our design
the code behind our system is just too byzantine
we’ll rewrite all the legacy and take it offline
and it’s gonna compile first time
