It's my pleasure to introduce the first "production" of one of my developer songs, which I've also sung at the awesome DevTeach conference.
The song talks about my experiences working with a database on a project not too long ago.. I hope you find it... familiar.
This was done with CoolEdit pro, with about 6 tracks of audio, each recorded on my laptop, with a special Guitar to USB Cable I purchased. It's hardly production quality, but I think it's "listenable" enough for people to enjoy.
Time For Violence
A Song about Databases
Lyrics By Roy Osherove
Hello DB My old friend
I need to work with you again
That stored procedure aint lookin' well
Who wrote that trigger should go to jail
and that index, It is slower than a snail
What the hell
I guess it's time
For violence
Man whoever wrote this code
That bastard's gonna hit the road
Now the customer is gonna sue
Instead of red my face are turning blue
and it seems like
there is no way out of this
there's just a hiss
I guess it's time
for violence
I'm angry and I want a name
That DBA should be ashamed
What's that you're saying?
It's ME to blame?
That database was MY OWN sick game?
Oh that's right
it was me who did the design
It was mine
I guess it's time
For silence
