"If You Have to Explain It"
[Rap Melodic Verse]
Saw the button on the screen, it was blinking bright,
Clicked it twice, thrice, still nothing seemed right,
A pop-up said, "Press here, don't be shy" (don't be shy),
But the more I read, the more I wanted to cry.
Dropdown menus cascading like a waterfall,
Nested options hidden, couldn’t find them all,
Tabs and windows open, lost in the fray (lost in the fray),
A simple task turned into a U I ballet.
[Pre-Chorus] [rap]
Instructions like a novel, icons like a riddle,
If it’s meant to be simple, why's it stuck in the middle? (stuck in the middle)
[Happy Chorus]
If you have to explain it, it doesn't work,
A U I so clear, you shouldn't go berserk,
Click, swipe, drag, no need for a guide (for a guide),
Good design's a joke that’s easy to slide.
[Rap Verse]
Tooltips everywhere, like a U I bazaar,
Hover here, double-click there, what bizarre,
A maze of menus, tabs like a race,
Spent an hour just to find the save space (save space).
A maze of menus, tabs like a race,
Spent an hour just to find the save space (save space).
(Spent an hour just to find the save space (save space))
[Pre-Chorus]
Instructions like a novel, icons like a riddle,

[Happy Chorus]
If you have to explain it, it doesn't work,
A U I so clear, you shouldn't go berserk,
Click, swipe, drag, no need for a guide (for a guide),
Good design's a joke that’s easy to slide.
[Rap Melodic Verse]
Every button labeled with a lengthy phrase,
Takes a degree to decipher these ways,
Colors clash like a chaotic parade,
Found myself in a usability charade.
Help sections that don't really help at all,
Searching for solutions feels like a crawl,
If I need a map to navigate this site (navigate this site),
Then somewhere, someone didn’t get it right.
If I need a map to navigate this site (navigate this site),

[Bridge]
Keep it clean, keep it mean, make it sleek,
No user manual should be the peak,
If the user’s lost, then you've missed the mark,
UI should light up, not leave us in the dark.
[Final Chorus]
If you have to explain it, it doesn't work (doesn't work),
A U I so clear, you shouldn't go berserk,
Click, swipe, drag, no need for a guide,
Good design's a joke that’s easy to slide.
[Outro]
So let's toast to designs that get it right (get it right),
No more guessing games, just pure delight,
When UI's a breeze, we all win the fight,
If you have to explain it, it’s not worth the hype.
(If you have to explain it, it’s not worth the hype.)
(If you have to explain it, it’s not worth the hype.)
