The first song of the 2001 Vic Chesnutt record Left to His Own Devices, “Deadline” is a short and bitter song about the stiff urgency of a “the latest time or date by which something should be completed.”
Deadline, it ain't moving
Deadline, stiff as a board
Deadline, ending is soon
But I gotta get something done done done, done done done soon
Deadline, under pressure
Deadline, it's gonna snap
Deadline, serious semester and I gotta get something done done done, done done done soon
Deadline, down to the wire
Deadline, it's bumming me out
Deadline, I'm oughtta retire
But I gotta get something done done done, done done done soon
