The Only Journey Map You Ever Gave Me Was a D**d End

[Intro]
[Verse 1]
You said "start here, this is our onboarding phase,"
With a clear value prop and a hopeful gaze.
I followed every step, a perfect little user,
But this path you laid out, it was a total loser.
I was ready to click, to convert, to commit,
But all I found was an empty state of it.
[Pre-Chorus]
I mapped out all the touchpoints, all the little highs and lows,
But you were in the metrics, the hidden user flows.
I’m a persona, a target, a case study in your head,
But this journey map you gave me just led to a d**d end instead.
[Chorus]
THE ONLY JOURNEY MAP YOU EVER GAVE ME WAS A D**D END!
A faulty prototype that I’ll never recommend!
Every milestone you promised was just an empty phase,
And now my whole experience is lost in a painful haze!
I’m stuck in the middle, in this miserable state,
And all I can do is just rage-click and wait!
[Verse 2]
I went to your friends, the stakeholders, the devs,
They all said the same thing in their stand-up eves.
"It’s not a bug, it’s a feature," your whole plan’s design,
A feature that left my heart broken and on the decline.
I reached the final screen, the big "thank you" message,
But it was a pop-up ad for your emotional baggage.
[Pre-Chorus]
I mapped out all the touchpoints, all the little highs and lows,
But you were in the metrics, the hidden user flows.
I’m a persona, a target, a case study in your head,
But this journey map you gave me just led to a d**d end instead.
[Chorus]
THE ONLY JOURNEY MAP YOU EVER GAVE ME WAS A D**D END!
A faulty prototype that I’ll never recommend!
Every milestone you promised was just an empty phase,
And now my whole experience is lost in a painful haze!
I’m stuck in the middle, in this miserable state,
And all I can do is just rage-click and wait!
[Bridge]
I thought we had a goal, a clear call to action,
But it was all just a cheap and fraudulent transaction.
A feedback loop that never gave me any closure,
Just a final screen that left me with no exposure.
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
THE ONLY JOURNEY MAP YOU EVER GAVE ME WAS A D**D END!
A faulty prototype that I’ll never recommend!
Every milestone you promised was just an empty phase,
And now my whole experience is lost in a painful haze!
I’m stuck in the middle, in this miserable state,
And all I can do is just rage-click and wait!
