Geekstas Paradise
by Sinc
(thanks to Gangstas Paradise by Coolio)
As I walk through the valley of silicon of death
I take a look at my screen and realize nothing's left
Cause I've been working and coding so long
that even my boss thinks my minds gone,
But I never compiled
lines that didn't deserve it.
Me treated like a saleman, you know that's unheard of
You better watch how you're 'sperging
and where you're ogling
Or your career might be just a fling
I really hate noobs but I gotta lob
As you leave I see myself in a bigger cube
Fool! I'm the kinda eng that interns wanna be like
On a plane in the night
Cursing Boeing and the red-eye flight.
Been spending most of our lives
living in the geekstas paradise
Keep spending most of our lives
living in the geekstas paradise
Look at the hours they got me working
I have no life to depend on, I'm owned by Python
So I gotta be down with the code team
Too much manpage reading got me printing reams
I'm an educated fool with money on my mind
Got my grants in hand and IPO in sight
I'm a locked out geeksta; set TRIPPING="banger"
My shares are down so don't arouse my anger.
Taco Bell ain't but a bubble burst away
I'm tired here, do I leave or stay?
I had X startups die, will there be X+1
The way things are going I don't know
Tell me why are we
too blind to find
That the days we waste
are yours and mine
Been spending most of our lives
living in the geekstas paradise
Keep spending most of our lives
living in the geekstas paradise
Options in the money, but girls not an option
Minute after minute, hour after hour
Everybody's coding but there's no one's looking
We keep on bitchin'
When we should be fuckin'
They say I gotta earn
But no more engineering me
If the manangement can't stand it, why should they make me?
I had CS,
I had EE,
I had enough!
That's why I'm getting outta here fools!
Been spending most of our lives
living in the geekstas paradise
Keep spending most of our lives
living in the geekstas paradise
Tell me why are we
too blind to find
That the days we waste
are yours and mine
