[Verse 1]
Velocity measures what your team completes
Story points delivered when the sprint repeats
Plot those numbers on a timeline straight
Watch the patterns as your speed takes shape
Burndown charts track the work remaining
Sprint to sprint, your progress you're claiming
[Chorus]
V-B-B-C, T-L-E metrics we need
Velocity Burndown Burnup Charts flowing free
Cumulative flow shows Throughput and Lead
Cycle time Escaped defects, agile guarantees
[Verse 2]
Burnup climbs to show the scope that's growing
Total work and done work both are showing
Release burnup paints the bigger picture
Sprint burndown makes your daily fixture
When the lines converge you'll hit your target
Time and effort balanced in your market
[Chorus]
V-B-B-C, T-L-E metrics we need
Velocity Burndown Burnup Charts flowing free
Cumulative flow shows Throughput and Lead
Cycle time Escaped defects, agile guarantees
[Verse 3]
Cumulative flow stacks your columns high
To do, in progress, done beneath the sky
Bottlenecks appear where colors bulge out
Lead time measures customer's full route
Cycle time starts when you begin the task
Throughput answers how much per week you ask
[Bridge]
Escaped defects slip through to production
Quality metrics need your close construction
Charts and graphs illuminate the way
Data drives decisions every single day
[Chorus]
V-B-B-C, T-L-E metrics we need
Velocity Burndown Burnup Charts flowing free
Cumulative flow shows Throughput and Lead
Cycle time Escaped defects, agile guarantees
[Outro]
Measure twice and code once, that's the rule
Agile metrics are your sharpest tool
