sung to "You Drive Me Crazy" by Britney Spears
the CD version

ola, oh how i need you
To explain recursions, so I know what to do.
ola, I just cannot see
Those little clones you claim are there to help me.
Everytime I trace the code
My head starts spinning, about to implode.
As if that were not enough, 
You had to go and make us use it in our huff.


It drives me crazy,
I just want to weep.
It may be efficient but I'd like to sleep.
If iteration, could only do it right,
then I would not have to stay up all the night.
 
ola, please give me a hint,
I've looked at this so long that I can only squint.
You say I gotta believe
In the power of recursion will I perceive.
To go to the left or right or back to the top,
Will I ever reach base case so I can stop.
