[Verse 1] Sarah stares at her laptop screen, her startup dream feels stuck Built a feature-packed app but downloads bring no luck She coded solutions first, skipped the crucial phase Now she's trapped in solution space, lost in the maze [Chorus] Problem space before solution space User research shows the way Jobs to Be Done, what they're hiring for Not what we think they'll pay Interview, observe, and validate Before you build a thing Problem space before solution space That's the discovery ring [Verse 2] Marcus runs surveys, asks what features users want But those answers mislead him, haunt him like a taunt Better questions dig deeper than surface desires What job needs completing when frustration fires? [Chorus] Problem space before solution space User research shows the way Jobs to Be Done, what they're hiring for Not what we think they'll pay Interview, observe, and validate Before you build a thing Problem space before solution space That's the discovery ring [Bridge] Shadow customers through their day Watch workflows break and fray When they pull out their phone to cope That's your product's real scope Ethnography reveals the truth Beyond what they claim they'd use [Verse 3] Three research methods in your kit Interviews for stories that truly fit Observations catch the real behavior Surveys scale insights as your data savior Problem space maps the pain and need Solution space plants the coded seed [Final Chorus] Problem space before solution space User research shows the way Jobs to Be Done, what they're hiring for Not what we think they'll pay Interview, observe, and validate Before you build a thing Problem space before solution space Discovery makes products sing [Outro] Validate assumptions early on Before your budget's gone Discovery fundamentals Make your product phenomenal
