[Intro]
meez... meez... meez-ahn-plahs
Everything... in its place.
Put your hands up if your shell just works!

[Verse 1]
CI's red at three a.m.
Pinned it once, it drifted again
Now the lockfile holds the line
Laptop, CI, same every time
Hooked my shell, I cd with ease
Everything in its place... mise

[Build-Up]
Give me one file, give me ease
Give me one command, give me mise
One file! (One file!)
One command! (One command!)
When I say MISE, you say RUN!
MISE! (RUN!)
MISE! (RUN!)
FIFTY THOUSAND TERMINALS IN THE AIR!
Say...

[Drop]
MISE RUN!
MISE RUN!
meez-meez-meez-meez
MISE RUN!
MISE! (RUN!)
MISE! (RUN!)

[Verse 2]
Who pinned Node? (mise use!)
New hire Monday? (mise install!)
Who runs the tests? (mise run test!)
Where's the config? (mise dot toml!)
nvm? (Gone!)
pyenv, rbenv? (Gone!)
Makefile, direnv? (Gone! Gone! Gone!)
One tool! (MISE!)

[Breakdown]
Before the doors open
Before the heat
Every blade laid out
And my heart on the beat
Let the whole world rush
I'll be standing at ease
Everything in its place
'Cause I've got my mise

[Build-Up 2]
Somewhere out there, they're rebuilding the world... just to boil water.
Your flake's still flaking (flake!)
Your store's forty gigs (gigs!)
Still "experimental" (what?)
Year after year (year!)
error: infinite recursion encountered
You spent the weekend configuring (config!)
We spent it shipping (ship!)
Ship! Ship! Ship! Ship!
MISE IS NIX FOR PEOPLE WITH WORK TO DO!
...so get to work.

[Drop 2]
MISE RUN!
MISE RUN!
mee-mee-mee-MEEZ!
MISE RUN!
Every-thing in its place!
MISE! (RUN!)
MISE! (RUN!)
Let me hear you, people with work to do!
MISE RUN!

[Outro]
Everything in its place
Everything in its place
I've got my mise
...exit code zero.
