Evening
And I'm here with my PC
'Cause my company needs me to be working this late
There's a deadline that must be met tomorrow at noon
So I'm stuck here with the moon
Midnight
I'm alone in the office
With the clack of the keyboard, I continue to work
In the break room I've got some coffee brewing again
I can hear it as it perks
Sunrise
And I suddenly wake up
And I try not to panic, just six hours to go
Get more coffee and splash some water onto my face
Yesterday seems long ago
Every keystroke seems to beat a fatalistic warning
Got to focus on some hocus pocus
To finish up this morning
Daylight
Everyone is arriving
But I've got to ignore them and just finish the task
I'm so close now I just ignore my email and phone
Three more hours' all I ask
Burnt out brain and coffee stains won't stop me from my mission
Management will applaud my skill
And give me recognition
High noon
And I've finished the project
So I give it to my boss and I wait for the praise
Then he tells me the deadline got extended a week
So I punch him in the face
