A songification of that most holiest of Python Enhancement Proposals, the PEP 8.

Based on an idea by Daniel "Mr. Hemlock" Brown.
Written and performed by Leon Sandøy, A.K.A. lemonsaurus.
Music and melody from Mad World by Roland Orzabal. This version was inspired by the version released by Gary Jules.

Lyrics:
You don't need any curly braces
just four spaces
just four spaces

Wildcard imports should be avoided
in most cases
in most cases

Try to make sure there's no trailing whitespace
it's confusing
it's confusing

Trailing commas go behind list items
git blame tightens
git blame tightens

And comments are important
as long as they're maintained
when comments are misleading it will drive people insane
just try to be empathic
just try to be a friend
it's really not that hard, just to adhere to

PEP 8
PEP 8

Constants should be named all capital letters
and live forever
live forever

And camelCase is not for Python
never ever
never ever

And never use a bare exception
be specific
be specific

No one likes the horizontal scrollbar
keep it succinct
keep it succinct

And comments are important
as long as they're maintained
when comments are misleading it will drive people insane
just try to be empathic
just try to be a friend
it's really not that hard just to adhere to
