Lyrics
[Verse]
Late at night
I was working on SQL
Messing with the code
Thought I knew it very well
But then disaster struck
I accidentally hit delete
Deleted all production rows
Oh the defeat
[Verse]
I panicked
My heart was racing
Palms were sweaty
The boss walked in
He looked upset and unsteady
He said
"Son
What have you done? This is a big mess"
I thought I'd be fired
Oh
I was under duress
[Chorus]
But he said
"I'm gonna keep you around (keep you around)
Even though you crashed the server and brought it down (brought it down)
You made a mistake
But we all make them sometimes (sometimes)
I see potential in you
So I'll give you some more tries"
[Verse]
I stayed up all night
To fix the mess I made
Tried a data restore
Prayed it wouldn’t degrade
My boss shook his head
But his smile was bright
[Verse]
Next day at work
Feeling like a total fool
I triple-check each query
Following every rule
Then comes an email
From the IT support crew
Saying, "Backup restored,
But let’s talk about what you do"
[Chorus]
But he said
"I'm gonna keep you around (keep you around)
Even though you crashed the server and brought it down (brought it down)
You made a mistake
But we all make them sometimes (sometimes)
I see potential in you
So I'll give you some more tries"
[Outro]
Late at night
I was working on SQL
Messing with the code
Thought I knew it very well
But then mastery struck
I accidentally hit complete
Enhance all production rows
Oh the reprieve
[Chorus]
But he said
"I'm gonna keep you around (keep you around)
Even though you crashed the server and brought it down (brought it down)
You made a mistake
But we all make them sometimes (sometimes)
I see potential in you
So I'll give you some more tries"
[Chorus]
But he said
"I'm gonna keep you around (keep you around)
Even though you crashed the server and brought it down (brought it down)
You made a mistake
But we all make them sometimes (sometimes)
I see potential in you
So I'll give you some more tries"
