Silicon Vally Guy
|
||
(to the tune of Vally Girl)
|
||
|
||
|
||
Chorus no. 1:
|
||
Silicon Vally Guy, Silicon Vally Guy.
|
||
Slip on by in tennis shoes;
|
||
Thinks he's glitched, but he's blown a fuse,
|
||
Went on up to Radio Shack,
|
||
To buy some chips for his Univac.
|
||
|
||
No, that one's not mine,
|
||
Anyway, it was a complete chip burnout,
|
||
With floppy disk failure,
|
||
A real total system dump, you know, for certain.
|
||
So I said to the output user,
|
||
"Look, would I de-rezz my own program? C'mon man,
|
||
Dont call me, call P.G.&E.
|
||
Go somewhere and have a meltdown, man like burn out."
|
||
Then I went down to the Shack to get some subminiature disk relays,
|
||
Get this, the salesman gives me a new plastic pocket protector,
|
||
|
||
Chorus no. 2:
|
||
Look out, Intel, here he comes.
|
||
He's the king of computer runs.
|
||
Got his degree from MIT.
|
||
Knows square roots to infinity.
|
||
|
||
I scanned that new program down in word processing,
|
||
The one with the huge mammory banks. Yeah, Julie
|
||
Punch my code, I am certain.
|
||
When I first saw her, I thought, "Whoa, give me a microsecond.
|
||
Could I trip her bit relay or what?"
|
||
She sort of smile at me and I'm thinkin',
|
||
"I've got to access this chick.
|
||
Should I go subroutine or main program?" You know.
|
||
So I just subtly invade her special ring and
|
||
Introduce myself for starters.
|
||
"Hi I'm Ray FIFO."
|
||
|
||
Chorus no. 1
|
||
|
||
So after a few casual edit statements,
|
||
I can tell this unit really dug me.
|
||
I mean, it's modem to the max.
|
||
The program computers, right?
|
||
We make plans to meet at her place,
|
||
I get there and she is on line,
|
||
I mean, like, she's wearing all this software.
|
||
I,m calculating the access time to her front end processor,
|
||
And there is phased jitter enteringall my charged coupled devices.
|
||
Her ambient temperature rises and she is alpha fluxing
|
||
Right before my eyes!
|
||
We skipped dinner.
|
||
|
||
Chorus no. 2
|
||
|
||
After a RAM refresh time interval, she says to me,
|
||
"Ray, I'm all decoded now. I think you better go."
|
||
And I say, "O.K. program. I can handle the endsum."
|
||
"And Ray," she says, "I hope you wont de-rezz me in the morning."
|
||
Hey I'm a silicon Vally Guy!"
|
||
|
||
Backround:
|
||
Vally Guy, he's a Vally Guy. Silicon Vally Guy.
|
||
|
||
Come here you tattered little data, you.
|
||
Give master control a little phase jitter.
|
||
Punch my code!
|
||
Did I ever show yo my cathode ray?
|
||
It's really tubular!
|
||
Gag me with a microchip.
|
||
Hey, where's my beeper?
