Delphi Programming Paradise

Delphi Programming Paradise?
Google for Amish Paradise. You'll find some YouTube videos

Religious Delphi Programming

As I walk through the IDE where I harvest my code
I take a look at my wife and realize she's very plain
But that's just perfect for an Amish programmer like me
You know, I shun fancy things like web-programming

At 4:30 in the morning I'm coding the Win32 app,
Jedediah tests the GUI and Jacob builds the installers... fool
And I've been coding' and testin' so long that
Even Ezekiel thinks that my mind is gone

I'm a developer in Delphi Land, I'm into discipline
Got a Bible in my hand and a beard on my chin
But if I finish all of my codes and you finish thine
Then tonight we're gonna party like it's 1995*

[*When Delphi 1 came out]

We've been spending most our lives
Living in an Delphi paradise
I've coded components once or twice
Living in an Delphi paradise
It's hard work and sacrifice
Living in an Delphi paradise
We sell applications at discount price*
Living in an Delphi paradise

[* like US$24.99]

A C++ boy kicked me in the butt last week
I just smiled at him and I turned the other cheek
I really don't care, in fact I wish him well
'Cause I'll be laughing my head off when he's burning in hell

But I ain't never punched a customer even if he deserved it
An Amish Developer with a 'tude? You know that's unheard of

I never wear Perl buttons but I got a cool (T)hat class
And my friendies agree my apps really look good in Vista, fool

If you come to visit you'll be bored to tears
We haven't even used Flash or Silverlight in 300 years
But we ain't really quaint, so please don't point and stare
We're just technologically impaired

There's no PHP, no JavaScript, no dot-Nyet*
Not a single luxury
Like Robinson Crusoe
It's as primitive as can be

[* Russian for "NO" or "Not NET".]

We've been spending most our lives
Living in an Delphi paradise
We're just plain and simple guys
Living in an Delphi paradise

There's no time for sin and vice
Living in an Delphi paradise
We don't fight, we all play nice
Living in an Delphi paradise

Hitchin' up the bug tracker, churnin' lots of code
Run the build on Monday, soon I'll build another
Think you're really righteous? Think you're pure in heart?

Well, I know I'm a million times as humble as thou art
I'm the pious guy the little Amlettes wanna be like
On my knees day and night scorin' points for the afterlife
So don't be vain and don't be whiny
Or else, my brother, I might have to get medieval on the code-review hiney :)

We've been spending most our lives
Living in an Delphi paradise
We're all crazy Delphi'lites
Living in an Delphi paradise
There's no Semaphores or memory leaks
Living in an Delphi paradise
But you'd probably think it bites
Living in an Delphi paradise
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahah yech
