Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When auditors knock upon your door
They're hunting clues from days before
Every click and change must leave a mark
Digital breadcrumbs in the dark
Your servers whisper secrets true
Of who did what and when they flew
Through databases and API calls
Evidence scattered through your halls

[Chorus]
Track it, stack it, never lack it
Audit trails must be systematic
Document, implement, make it permanent
Show the flow from start to current
Log it, catalog it, never lose it
Timestamps tell the tale you're using
Evidence organized and classified
Audit readiness verified

[Verse 2]
Every user action needs a stamp
Date and time like a camping camp
Changes to your code repository
Filed away for inventory
Access logs and error reports
Sorted into careful sorts
Configuration management files
Archived in neat and tidy piles

[Chorus]
Track it, stack it, never lack it
Audit trails must be systematic
Document, implement, make it permanent
Show the flow from start to current
Log it, catalog it, never lose it
Timestamps tell the tale you're using
Evidence organized and classified
Audit readiness verified

[Bridge]
Backup schedules running smooth
Security patches with their proof
Version control with branching history
Solving the compliance mystery
Retention policies crystal clear
Keep what matters, toss what's drear
Categories labeled, indexed bright
Everything bathed in searchable light

[Verse 3]
Infrastructure documentation
Maps your tech administration
Disaster recovery procedures
Written like detailed adventures
Privacy controls and data flows
Charted everywhere information goes
Incident response playbooks ready
Keeping your compliance steady

[Chorus]
Track it, stack it, never lack it
Audit trails must be systematic
Document, implement, make it permanent
Show the flow from start to current
Log it, catalog it, never lose it
Timestamps tell the tale you're using
Evidence organized and classified
Audit readiness verified

[Outro]
When the audit season comes around
Your documentation will astound
Every question has its answer filed
Compliance achieved with records styled
