Hello everyone, this is the third edition of the grand «Guess the Song Challenge» with twisted lyrics. As always, try to guess the original song, but the lyrics were changed to match the best concepts about chapters 17 and 18 of The Deadline, by Tom De Marco. I was going to also include the interlude of the book, but I didn’t find useful information to share, so I’ll skip it.

Lyrics
Interests here, interests there, all parties want something
Are they satisfied?
Software dev industries have poor conflicts res strats
Why they don’t recall?
Problems always rise
They’re a natural thing
So embrace them today
You must pay respect
But you never have to get them snowball my friend
Just one great tip
Address them early
Make sure everyone states their wins at start of the deal
Mediation is easy
Real easy
As I said mediate them
Cause negotiation will
Bring more problems up
If they are on same side
You must convince them that
They’re against conflict
There are simple steps
To mediate well
Mediation’s easy
But it’s not trivial
Must remember they key to make them all play around
Ask permission
To be mediator
But you have to be someone who’s impartial always
Mediation is easy
Real easy
I wish I may, I wish I might
Have this wish I wish tonight
I want to mediate, I want it now
I want this solved and I don’t know how
That is all my friends
End of the chapter
End of two chapters, you may have guessed it
End of two chapters, mediation’s the answer
Mediation’s easy
But it’s not trivial
Must remember they key to make them all play around
Ask permission
To be mediator
But you have to be someone who’s impartial always
Mediation is easy
Real easy
Mediation is easy
Hope you guessed the song’s name
