Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Woke up in the morning, had a plan to make the day,
But then a dozen little things started heading my way.
A coffee spill, a lost key, an email I forgot,
Scope creep in my life, it seems I'm taking on a lot.
(Chorus)
Scope creep, it's creeping in, adding to the list,
Every little thing is something I just can’t resist.
I'm a PMP, gotta set my boundaries right,
Cutting scope creep down, keeping it out of sight.
(Verse 2)
Boss wants a new report, got a meeting in an hour,
The phone won’t stop ringing, my calendar's lost its power.
I try to say no, but I can’t resist the pull,
Scope creep's a monster, it’s devouring my schedule.
(Hook)
Keep it tight, keep it clear, scope creep, you can't stay here,
I'm in control, gotta steer, this is my project, I'm the engineer.
No more detours, no more strays, keeping focused, on my way,
Scope creep, you're outta luck, can't let you take my day.
(Verse 3)
Started saying no, had to find my way back,
Cut the clutter, made a plan, kept it on track.
Every little thing was just noise I didn't need,
Scope creep's a battle, but I'm planting the right seed.
(Bridge)
Time to take control, draw the lines I need,
Gonna push back, gotta fight against the greed.
I’ll say no to the extras, keep my focus clear,
Keep scope creep at bay, keep my program free from fear.
I’ll say no to the extras, keep my focus clear,
Keep scope creep at bay, keep my program free from fear.
(Verse 4)
Client wants revisions, they’re piling on the change,
Seems like every day they’ve got a whole new range.
But I keep my focus, I hold my ground,
Scope creep won't drown me, I'll turn it all around.
(Chorus)
Scope creep, it's creeping in, adding to the list,
Every little thing is something I just can’t resist.
I'm a PMP, gotta set my boundaries right,
Cutting scope creep down, keeping it out of sight.
(Chorus)
Scope creep, it's creeping in, adding to the list,
Every little thing is something I just can’t resist.
I'm a PMP, gotta set my boundaries right,
Cutting scope creep down, keeping it out of sight.
(Verse 5)
Deadlines on the calendar, they're coming up fast,
Got a plan in place, gonna make this project last.
Gotta say no to extras, can't afford the slack,
Scope creep, I've got your number, I'm not looking back.
Team's got their own ideas, everyone wants a say,
But I'm the project manager, I pave the way.
Scope creep, I've got your number, I'm not looking back.
[Phonics]
Team's got their own ideas, everyone wants a say,
But I'm the project manager, I pave the way.
Keep the project tight, don't let it get derailed,
Scope creep's a thief, but in this project, it’s failed.
(Chorus)
Scope creep, it's creeping in, adding to the list,
Every little thing is something I just can’t resist.
I'm a PMP, gotta set my boundaries right,
Cutting scope creep down, keeping it out of sight.
(Phonics)
Stakeholders keep calling, wanting something new,
They don't see the vision, they don’t have a clue.
But I've got my scope, and I'm sticking to my plan,
Scope creep's a shadow, but I'm taking a stand.
(Phonics Outro)
Got my priorities straight, got my plan in hand,
Scope creep won’t take me down, I'm making my stand.
I’m a PMP, I know what I gotta do,
Cutting scope creep out, staying focused, staying true
