lyrics

I'm not plugged into the PROJECT!!
Feel like a part of the PROBLEM!!
I need somebody who can leverage these assets!
I need somebody who can leverage MY assets!

THERE'S A LAYER OF ABSTRACTION THAT KEEPS THE MIND FROM THINKING
THERE'S A LAYER OF ABSTRACTION THAT KEEPS THE MIND FROM GOING TO SLEEP

It's too much behind a layer of abstaction!
Can't do my work, that's a distraction! (x2)

What are you doing? [ I'm doin' it half-assed. ]
How ya gonna do it? [ I'm gonna do it half-assed. ]
Why don't you do it right? [ It's close enough for government. ]
[ It's close enough for private sector. ]

THERE'S A LAYER OF ABSTRACTION THAT KEEPS THE MIND FROM THINKING
THERE'S A LAYER OF ABSTRACTION THAT KEEPS THE MIND FROM GOING TO SLEEP
COME AND SHIFT MY PARADIGMS, COME AND SHIFT MY PARADIGMS, I'M
WAITING FOR THE COST OF OPPORTUNITY

They told me in business school this would be easy!
They told me in regular school that I was weird
They told me in business school that I was crazy
They told me in regular school to GET OUT.

I GOT THE DETAILS! I GOT THE FACTS!
I got the SPECS that the IMPLEMENTATION lacks
Hardware coming back, software can't relax
"Go to rev B! We'll go to rev B!"

"Put it all behind a layer of abstraction
They can't tell, it's hiding the action!
It's gonna all be a layer of abstraction
Why do real work when you control the action?"

HAVE YOU GOT IT DONE YET? [ I'm gonna do it later ]
WHEN YOU GONNA DO IT? [ I'm gonna do it later ]
WHY DON'T YOU DO IT NOW? [ It's gonna take forever. It's gonna take a long time. ]

THERE'S A LAYER OF ABSTRACTION THAT KEEPS THE MIND FROM THINKING
THERE'S A LAYER OF ABSTRACTION THAT KEEPS THE MIND FROM GOING TO SLEEP
COME AND CHANGE MY AXIOMS, COME AND CHANGE MY AXIOMS
I'M WAITING TO ASSESS THE RISK OF KNOWING YOU
