Lyrics
Last night, the screens blurred, midnight oil burned,
Database whispers, lessons unlearned.
Tick-tock goes the clock, yet eyes weigh heavy,
Lost in code lines, thoughts unsteady.
One more coffee, black as the console,
Fading fast, losing control.
Dreams of queries, endless streams,
Jumbled data in restless dreams.
Alarm forgotten, silence too deep,
Morning sun finds him still in sleep.
Overslept, the panic starts to creep,
Wakes to a nightmare, not a beep.
(And not a beep)
[Chorus]
Snap awake, what's this I see? (what's this I see?)
Rows deleted, infinity.
From deep slumber, this mishap (this mishap),
A delete query, no chance to backtrack.
Blinking cursor, heart skips—beat,
Accidental delete, can't hit retreat.
Production’s down, chaos unleashed,
What’s lost is vast, peace deceased.
Emergency calls, sweat beads form,
Trying to salvage the data storm.
Undo's a wish not granted today,
Mistakes so costly, what can he say?
[Bridge]
From dreams to disaster, the switch is flipped,
Adrenaline rush, his reality's scripted.
Now he's wide awake, a costly slip,
Every row gone in a keystroke trip.
[Chorus]
Snap awake, what's this I see? (what's this I see?)
Rows deleted, infinity.
From deep slumber, this mishap (this mishap),
A delete query, no chance to backtrack.
[Hook]
In the echo of the delete key,
Lies the lesson he couldn't foresee.
When you think you're in too deep,
It's the errors that make you leap.
[Outro Verse]
Coffee cold on the desk, the day’s now long,
Reflecting on a note that went so wrong.
Yet in the chaos, a truth's set free,
Better vigilant than a memory.
[Fade Away]
[End Song]
