This Game Maker's Theme

(sung to the tune of Sweet Baby James)

There is a game maker, who sits by the screen.
A year on the game and it's still a great canyon,
at every stage to the task he's abandoned
his house is a fortress, his life is a dream.

And as the time dwindles, another long evenin'
how should it run when the puzzle is solved?
My script writer's silent and my puzzle's not workin'
I need to see this thing resolved
quickly my pleasure dissolves.

So move on to another task waiting,
and try not to yield to the strain.
The work and the vision, the anticipating,
the hope that you won't have to feign
and the end that you will attain.

It is now just a year since the project began
who would have thought it would still be unfinished?
the trials and the pleasures have never diminished
seems like a long time, but it's all in the plan.

There's a script that I use if the puzzle's a sequence,
there's a script that I use if the puzzle's a dial,
there's a script that I use to write code in my hint books,
it's all overwhelming if away for a while,
but the graphics work just fine for me.

So move on to another task waiting,
and try not to yield to the strain.
The work and the vision, the anticipating,
the hope that you won't have to feign
and the end that you will attain.
