The Lament of the Lagging Database

[Verse] Oh The server's groaning It's been workin' all night The database is creakin' Strugglin' with its might The load is heavy It's too overwhelmed to cope I long for swift refresh But it's all just smoke [Chorus] Yo-ho Me hearties We're stuck in the lag The power bee eye reports They're a drag We sail through the data No progress we find Oh The lament of the lagging It's drivin' us blind [Verse] The code is weary It's lost all its thrill I need me figures But the system won't fulfill Slow and sluggish It's like a sinking ship I yearn for speed But it's all just a blip [Verse 2] We've tried every trick Every query we've spun But the data's just stuck And the night's nearly done The crew's getting restless Their patience wearing thin As we wait for that moment When the refresh will begin [Chorus] Yo-ho Me hearties We're stuck in the lag The power bee eye reports They're a drag We sail through the data No progress we find Oh The lament of the lagging It's drivin' us blind [Verse 3] But we'll weather this storm Though the waves crash and roar For we're sailors of data And we've faced this before With perseverance and grit We'll see the dawn's light And finally, our reports Will refresh and take flight [Outro] So hoist up the anchor And set sail once more Through the sea of information To the distant shore For though the lag may delay Our course we'll chart true And in the end, me hearties We'll see our data dreams come true!
