"This Code" by Stan Mouser
Tune of "This Love" by Maroon 5

I was so tired I did not recognize
The code that was before my eyes
That morning at 3:09
Whispered goodnight and nodded off to sleep
Sawing wood and counting sheep
But only for a while

This code has taken its toll on me
Its Big Oh's too slow, O of n to the four
And I should have learned to traverse a tree
But I can't do that, 'cause I cannot rotate anymore

It was an operator overload
Trying to compare two nodes
To make my own pq
I tried my best to stay up that night
De-bugging by candle-light
But then my mind went dark

This code has taken its toll on me
Its Big Oh's too slow, O of n to the four
And I should have learned to traverse a tree
But I can't do that, 'cause I cannot rotate anymore

I'll fix this broken code
I'll make it not run slow
And make sure everything's all right
I'll try to make a graph
And do my own tstack
I'll make sure to do it right

This code has taken its toll on me
Its Big Oh's too slow, O of n to the four
And I should have learned to traverse a tree
But I can't do that, 'cause I cannot rotate anymor
