Take My Wretch Away

Watching every segment
In my programme…
Here’s a segmentation
That no one can tame…
Coding and debugging
To successfully run a test case
Watching in slow motion
As each one of them fail
My God

Take my wretch away
Take my wretch away

Watching PM keeps waiting,
Still anticipating success…
Never hesitating
To become the hated one…
Turning and returning
To desecrate my place…
Watching in slow motion
As I look around and pray
My boss

Take my wretch away
Take my wretch away

As I mercilessly pawed you (keyboard)
In time you chipped away
When the OS crashes I pound you
And hear myself say
If only for today
Let me live a day

Take my wretch away
Take my wretch away

Scanning with caution
Every line in my programme
Haunted by the notion
Somewhere there's a bug in between
Debugging and compiling
Repeating this till end of day
Watching in slow motion
As it pops errors and run astray
My Lord

Take my wretch away
Take my wretch away
