Sits at the keyboard
And waits for a line on the screen
Lives in a dream
Waits for a signal

Look at him working, fixing the bugs in the night when there's nobody there.
What does he care?

All the lonely users, why does it take so long?
Ah, look at all the lonely users.
Ah, look at all the lonely users.
