C It’s a Friday in the office, G7 The clock has just struck two, G You’ve been working on that code all week, C And want to see it through, C You bypass pre-prod testing, F After your first clean compile, G G7 But a voice the in the back of your mind, G C Says wait a little while. F C Never push to production on a Friday, G C No not a Friday, Never a Friday, F C Never push to production on a Friday, G7 G F G C Unless you’re hoping, To Unleash Hell. If your code will be soon be running, On a million odd machines, You better be sure that it works, Cause that’s a lot of beans, You might disrupt the airlines, Or the AT Machines, And you won’t have a job come Monday, If it was your code caused the scene. So if you’re a developer, A cutter of the code, Then never bypass pre-prod, And test is under load, When it comes to ones and zeros, There’s edge cases galore, And if you fail to spot them, You’ll soon be shown the door,
