AN ELECTRONIC CHRISTMAS/CHANUKAH CARD TO ALL
|
||
Lyrics by Evan Leibovitch, code by Beverly Erlebacher
|
||
|
||
Dedicated to anyone who's left their computers alone
|
||
just long enough for them to self-destruct:
|
||
|
||
(Sung to the tune of something or other...)
|
||
|
||
|
||
On the first day I left it, my Unix gave to me:
|
||
A burnt-out V.D.T.
|
||
|
||
On the second day I left it, my Unix gave to me:
|
||
Two faulty tapes;
|
||
And a burnt-out V.D.T.
|
||
|
||
On the third day I left it, my Unix gave to me:
|
||
Three heads crashed;
|
||
Two faulty tapes;
|
||
And a burnt-out V.D.T.
|
||
|
||
On the fourth day I left it, my Unix gave to me:
|
||
Four bad blocks;
|
||
Three heads crashed;
|
||
Two faulty tapes;
|
||
And a burnt-out V.D.T.
|
||
|
||
On the fifth day I left it, my Unix gave to me:
|
||
Five core dumps;
|
||
Four bad blocks;
|
||
Three heads crashed;
|
||
Two faulty tapes;
|
||
And a burnt-out V.D.T.
|
||
|
||
On the sixth day I left it, my Unix gave to me:
|
||
Six bad controllers;
|
||
Five core dumps;
|
||
Four bad blocks;
|
||
Three heads crashed;
|
||
Two faulty tapes;
|
||
And a burnt-out V.D.T.
|
||
|
||
On the seventh day I left it, my Unix gave to me:
|
||
Seven blown partitions;
|
||
Six bad controllers;
|
||
Five core dumps;
|
||
Four bad blocks;
|
||
Three heads crashed;
|
||
Two faulty tapes;
|
||
And a burnt-out V.D.T.
|
||
|
||
On the eighth day I left it, my Unix gave to me:
|
||
Eight gettys dying;
|
||
Seven blown partitions;
|
||
Six bad controllers;
|
||
Five core dumps;
|
||
Four bad blocks;
|
||
Three heads crashed;
|
||
Two faulty tapes;
|
||
And a burnt-out V.D.T.
|
||
|
||
On the ninth day I left it, my Unix gave to me:
|
||
Nine floppies frying;
|
||
Eight gettys dying;
|
||
Seven blown partitions;
|
||
Six bad controllers;
|
||
Five core dumps;
|
||
Four bad blocks;
|
||
Three heads crashed;
|
||
Two faulty tapes;
|
||
And a burnt-out V.D.T.
|
||
|
||
On the tenth day I left it, my Unix gave to me:
|
||
Ten ports a-jamming;
|
||
Nine floppies frying;
|
||
Eight gettys dying;
|
||
Seven blown partitions;
|
||
Six bad controllers;
|
||
Five core dumps;
|
||
Four bad blocks;
|
||
Three heads crashed;
|
||
Two faulty tapes;
|
||
And a burnt-out V.D.T.
|
||
|
||
On the eleventh day I left it, my Unix gave to me:
|
||
Eleven chips a-smoking;
|
||
Ten ports a-jamming;
|
||
Nine floppies frying;
|
||
Eight gettys dying;
|
||
Seven blown partitions;
|
||
Six bad controllers;
|
||
Five core dumps;
|
||
Four bad blocks;
|
||
Three heads crashed;
|
||
Two faulty tapes;
|
||
And a burnt-out V.D.T.
|
||
|
||
On the twelfth day I left it, my Unix gave to me:
|
||
Twelve boards a-blowing;
|
||
Eleven chips a-smoking;
|
||
Ten ports a-jamming;
|
||
Nine floppies frying;
|
||
Eight gettys dying;
|
||
Seven blown partitions;
|
||
Six bad controllers;
|
||
Five core dumps;
|
||
Four bad blocks;
|
||
Three heads crashed;
|
||
Two faulty tapes;
|
||
And a burnt-out V.D.T.
|
||
|
||
On the thirteenth day I started adapting my Nintendo for the VME bus.
