There once was a repo written in C
The name of the repo was libshanty
The buffers overran, her memory leaked
O blow, my registers, blow.
Soon may the User folk come
And try our repo to build and run
One day, when the compilin's done
We'll make a release and go
She had not been two weeks released
When down on the net came a CVE
The maintainer called all devs and swore
We'd fix that memory hole
Soon may the User folk come
And try our repo to build and run
One day, when the compilin's done
We'll make a release and go
Before the code had hit CI
The build did fail and the server did die
All devs to their keyboards with coffee in hand
And dived them into code.
Soon may the User folk come
And try our repo to build and run
One day, when the compilin's done
We'll make a release and go
Every line was changed, no bit was spared
An every single maintainer despared
That if they could not land a fix
Someone would fork that buggy code
Soon may the User folk come
And try our repo to build and run
One day, when the compilin's done
We'll make a release and go
For forty commits, or even more
A dozen slacks, then PR once more
All devs were lost, there were only four
To maintain that buggy code
Soon may the User folk come
And try our repo to build and run
One day, when the compilin's done
We'll make a release and go
As far as I’ve heard, the fight’s still on
The release is not cut and the bug's not gone
The User folk open another issue
To demand new features no one will use
Soon may the User folk come
And try our repo to build and run
One day, when the compilin's done
We'll make a release and go
Soon may the User folk come
And try our repo to build and run
One day, when the compilin's done
We'll make a release and go
