Sort of by Cake
(Lyrics by Henri Hein)
I need this program running
I need to find the switch
I need to understand this
or else my deadline miss
They tell me that it's got it all
they tell me that it's there
But when I need it
... it's never there
On the console long, long hours
trying to unlock the powers
First it says, scan the man text
12k later, still perplexed
Never there, it's never there
it's never, ever, ever, ever there
A golden tip that flies away
my project is in flames
I'm winding through these endless refs
these docs are just a maze
(Repeat)
They tell me that it's got it all
they tell me that it's there
but when I need it...
I take the time to get to know it
if it's there why can't you just show me
Always on this roller coaster
if it's there why can't I get closer
(Never there...)
