Okay, say Doug wants to build a building out of cinderblocks. For one person, it's several days' work at least, at eight hours a day.
Doug decides instead to use this song.
He stands in the middle of the work site, and plays it. When it's over, it's as if he'd done 8 hours' hard work on the building -- the foundation might be dug and poured, for instance.
Every day he does this, and the song does 8 hours' work for him, until the building is complete.
Before the building is complete, though, the magic effect is... unstable. If he decides to switch projects, the building will revert to its original state -- component parts, unaltered land, etc., and if he comes back to it he has to start from the beginning again.
Is that clearer?
