Bug in the JavaScript Lyrics by Dylan Beattie

2019

It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
You should be out having fun
But there's one bug left in the backlog
And you're not going out 'till it's done
You've checked all the database indexes
You've tuned all your API hooks
And you're starting to think that you might need that drink
'Cos there's only one place left to look...

There must be a bug in the JavaScript
The bug's in the JavaScript app
Because everything else was built properly
But the front end's a pile of crap

Now null is a referеnce to nothing
Don't mix it up with undefined
And thеre's zero, and NaN, and Infinity, man
Just remember which ones can be signed
And you think that your numbers are integers
When you're really in floating point hell
And your objects are hashes, but when your code crashes
You'll find they were functions as well

It was never intended to do all this
They say it was built in ten days
But it's out of the bottle, it's going full throttle
We've all caught the JavaScript craze
Yes, we use it for code that runs everywhere
From the cloud to your mobile phone
But we're sharing a string padding library
'Cos it's better than writing our own

There must be a bug in the JavaScript
The bug's in the JavaScript app
Because everything else was built properly
But the front end's a pile of crap

Now JavaScript's not a bad language
Though it's frequently misunderstood
But before you see what you can use it for
Please stop to think whether you should
Because just about everything's true here
It's all part of the language design
Except zero, blank strings, the array of no things
And the end of 1969

There must be a bug in the JavaScript
The bug's in the JavaScript app
Because everything else was built properly
But the front end's a pile of crap
