lyrics

(mm)

Forty-one jobs waiting and every one of them is somebody's idea
I can see the whole studio in a list of pending
Everybody's hope, queued, in order of submission
(order of submission)
That's a strange thing to be able to look at

Job nineteen has failed twice (failed twice)
I'll retry it before I tell them

(render queue)
Everybody's dream is a progress bar tonight
Render queue
And I will sit here till they all go green

Nobody thanks the thing that runs while they're asleep
That's fine, that's the job, that's genuinely the job
But it's nice to say it once inside a song
(inside a song)
Så nu har jag sagt det. Vidare.

Job nineteen went through at 3:52.
Nobody will ever know it nearly didn't.
Except me. And now you.
