The Vim Elite

We are the vim users, the club of the code
Our commands are a maze, our own secret mode
CTRL+X? CTRL+V? Such ordinary feats
We're the keystroke kings, dancing on delete

Yank it (yank it)
Paste it (paste it)
Yank it (yank it)
Paste it (paste it)

We're the elites with our screens all in green
Tap-tapping ESC like a well-oiled machine
We live on the keyboard, no need for a mouse
GUIs are for the weak, not for a coding powerhouse

Our keys click in rhythm, at a masterful pace
While beginners falter, in this high-speed race

Watching newbies trying to insert a line
Their puzzled faces, oh, it's just so fine
Why click around menus, when a ':wq' is art
Efficiency in chaos, that's how we set apart

We are the vim users, the club of the code
Our commands are a maze, our own secret mode
CTRL+X? CTRL+V? Such ordinary feats
We're the keystroke kings, dancing on delete

Did you just try to copy with your mouse? (ha!) So quaint
We yank, and we paste, with the calm of a saint
Undo with a click? Such a basic trick
We're the 'u' to your errors, swift and slick

They say, "Use a Normal Editor, it's so much simpler"
But we cherish the cryptic, it's our kind of elixir
A thousand key combos, swirling 'round in our mindscape
We laugh from our thrones, when you look for an 'ESC'

We are the Vim users, the club of the code
Our commands are a maze, our own secret mode
CTRL+X? CTRL+V? Such ordinary feats
We're the keystroke kings, dancing on delete

Here's a nod to the noobs, as their hopes are dimmed
You might live in daylight, but you've never truly 'vimmed'
It's a rite of passage, to get lost in the Vim
But once you're in, oh, the power, so fit and so trim

So raise your .vimrc, customized and sleek
To the uninitiated, our world might seem bleak
But we revel in syntax, in our cryptic code choir
Join our ranks, if you dare, reach higher (reach higher)

We are the Vim Elite (vim elite), stand proud
Masters of commands, our keystrokes so loud
Laugh as they fumble, their efforts in vain
In the church of Vim, where the bold remain

(we are)
(the vim elite)
(the vim elite)
(the vim elite)
(the vim elite)
(the vim elite)
