[Intro: Alternating Ensemble, spoken]
Incident War Room.
Severity one. Start the clock.
Name the leed. State the impact.
Stop the bleed.

[Verse 1: Alternating Ensemble, Female First]
Ben says buyers cannot pay.
PREE-yah says the build was safe.
LAY-nah sees the instances rise.
TAH-reek sees connections multiply.
MAH-rah pins the current state:
"Payment writes are running late.
Duplicate rows remain contained.
Scaling has escaped its chain."

[Pre-Chorus: Duet]
Mute the blame. Unmute the fact.
Name the change and name the impact.
One shared clock. One written view.
One next action. One owner due.

[Chorus: Duet]
Incident War Room, voices collide.
Each team enters from its side.
Cut the blame. Put facts in view.
One shared clock, one job to do.
When the system splits in two,
one hard truth must bind the crew.

[Verse 2: Alternating Ensemble]
PREE-yah finds the release diff:
a retry loop that never quits.
Each timeout opens twenty more.
Each new worker floods the core.
LAY-nah reeds the scaling rule:
"Target forty. Maximum null."
Cloud machines arrive in waves,
adding load they claim to save.

[Pre-Chorus: Duet]
Mute the blame. Unmute the fact.
Name the change and name the impact.
One shared clock. One written view.
One next action. One owner due.

[Chorus: Duet]
Incident War Room, voices collide.
Each team enters from its side.
Cut the blame. Put facts in view.
One shared clock, one job to do.
When the system splits in two,
one hard truth must bind the crew.

[Verse 3: Alternating Ensemble, Male First]
TAH-reek sees two primaries write.
Ben says double charges bite.
MAH-rah cuts the channel clean:
"PREE-yah, stop the faulty stream.
TAH-reek, guard the ledger state.
LAY-nah, cap the scaling rate.
Ben, keep callers on the thread.
I will own the clock ahead."

[Drum Break: competing kick, tom, and rim-click patterns resolving beneath the pager motif]

[Bridge: Alternating Vocals]
Release rolled back. Scaling bound.
One primary. Writes held down.
KLOWSS says, "Load returns at five,
like something buried stayed alive."

[Breakdown: Alternating Vocals]
No guesses.
No private thread.
Write the action.
Stop the spread.

[Final Chorus: Duet]
Incident War Room, now aligned,
every hand on the same timeline.
Cut the blame. Put facts in view.
One shared clock, one job to do.
The split is stopped. The graphs improve.
Beneath them, something starts to move.

[Outro: Male Vocal, Klaus]
The channel stills. The cost jumps high.
KLOWSS follows one forgotten line:
"Unknown process. Full-table copy.
Five-minute cycle. It will resume."
