Hacker News Rap Anthem (HNRM) Lyrics

Hackerneeeews Love!

[Chorus]
Hacker Neeeewz, knows how to code yeah
Hacker Nee eewz, knows how to code yeah
In the browseeeeer of Google Chrome
In the browseeeeer of V8
In the browseeeer of Mozilla
We keep debugging, we keep debugging

[Verse 1: Elmar Gasimov]
Eh yoo, I chop da front-end with my sublime text
Never know what 'this' is and the context
When I step into the website, I check the source code
N then I debug that bitch in chrome developer mode

Aaaah, I go so crazy with my stickers on ma macbook
No time for the GIT groupies, yeah I'm a hack crook
When Stackoverflow show me no luv I grab a textbook
Then I find some shit I never heeeeard off

So I Backbone that spagetti, while I repo that machete
Debug the errors in ma Node, cuz ma server kinda heavy
I gotta diva of a code, and she never production ready
Ma PHP boys dun get me, cuz there code is kinda thready
[Hook]
Hacker Neeeewz, knows how to code yeah
Hacker Nee eewz, knows how to code yeah
In the browseeeeer of Google Chrome
In the browseeeeer of V8
In the browseeeer of Mozilla
We keep debugging, we keep debugging

[Hook]
Hack it, hack it baby
Hack it, hack it
Hack it babyyyy

Hack it, hack it mama
Hack it Hackerz
Hack it babyyyy

[Verse 2: Imad Salhi]
Out on VIM fresh outta bash, I am Hacker dreaming
Soon I step in the Hackathon, I hear the newbies screaming
Fighting for a week worth of dyno space
The life of a hackernewz playa keeps no pace
Yeah it's all good

Cuz only on Hackernewz
Executive hoodies and crunch, is what we do
DDoS-ing, bringing cautions when we collide with other newbs
Famous cause we program... worldwideeeee
Debugging and optimizing using that long scan

So say what you say, but give me that bomb code from Rake
And let create my database using Migrate

From PHP to Python, Objective C
C#, Rails and back down

Hackernews is where they put the Mac down
Give me Loooveeee!

[Hook]
Hacker Neeeewz, knows how to code yeah
Hacker Nee eewz, knows how to code yeah
In the browseeeeer of Google Chrome
In the browseeeeer of V8
In the browseeeer of Mozilla
We keep debugging, we keep debugging

[Hook]
Hack it, hack it baby
Hack it, hack it
Hack it babyyyy

Hack it, hack it mama
Hack it Hackerz
Hack it babyyyy
