Intro |

Microserf
I patch bugs, all day long, in a stark tiny cell.
Had I'd known, when I signed, I'd have chosen Pac Bell.
And that's all, I have done, and it makes me irate.
Damn their code! Damn their rules! Damn their Gates!
I was young, I had dreams, of designing myself.
But got stuck, in a rut, fixing aps on the shelf.
They placed chains, on my brain. They won't let me create!
Damn their code! Damn their rules! Damn their Gates!
Oh they hire the best, but their products are shit.
If it passes one test, then it's time to ship it.
Any bugs can be patched, for their users can't wait.
Damn their code! Damn their rules! Damn their Gates!
Like a slave, in my cube, I keep fixing each mess.
Though the pay isn't bad, nothing's worth this much stress.
I worked hard, I burned out, now I'm cursing my fate.
Damn their code! Damn their rules! Damn their Gates!
