Tailwind from Developer Music by Marcus Bointon

I’m trying to build an app that looks good
It’s all taking much more time than it should
Classes and styles going ‘round in my head
turns out it’s not as easy as I originally said.

I’m finding my breakpoints, feeling defeated
and all this old stuff will have to be deleted
One thing is clear from all this confusion
I’ve had to come to an unfortunate conclusion

No, I ain’t got no style;
I need tailwind
I got problems, maybe more than a few
I need tailwind
Oooooh, I ain’t got style;
I need tailwind
Not sure what I’m gonna do
I need tailwind

You might think I’m crazy, but I’m gonna read some docs
I’ve gotta figure out how to arrange all these blocks
It looks great on my Mac, but explodes on my phone
and judging by Stack Overflow, I’m not alone

I ask, “hey Adam, you got any ideas?”
He says, “yeah, get Tailwind to mop up those tears”
So I’m going with the flow, flexing my grid
trying to figure out what those tutorials did, but still,

I ain’t got no style;
I’ll try tailwind
I got problems, maybe more than a few
I’ll try tailwind
Oooooh, I ain’t got style;
I’ll try tailwind
Not sure what I’m gonna do
I’ll try tailwind

When my mode is getting dark
and my layouts fall to bits
I keep trying all kinds of things
until suddenly everything clicks

My grid’s all cool unlike my previous wreck
I don’t have to keep my units in check
I love my pretty colours, my text is so clean
I hate to think of what it might have been, but now

I’m slicing up my blade into little tiny pieces
It’s the moment for components, it’s all utility
I’m loving how it works everywhere, especially on my phone
Tailwind’s really in several classes of its own

No, I ain’t got no style;
I got tailwind
I got classes, maybe more than a few
I got tailwind
Oooooh, I ain’t got style;
I got tailwind
Maybe you’d like to try it too
We got tailwind

Oooooh, I ain’t got style;
I got tailwind
Oooooh, I ain’t got style;
I got tailwind
