"IMAGINE (John Lennon)

   Imagine there's no Windows,
   It's easy if you try.
   No fatal errors or new bugs
   To kill your hard drives.

   Imagine Mr. Bill Gates
   Leaving us in peace!

   Imagine never ending hard disks,
   It isn't hard to do.
   Nothing to del or wipe off
   And no floppy too

   Imagine Mr. Bill Gates
   Sharing all his money.

   You may say I'm a hacker,
   But I'm not the only one.
   I hope someday you'll join us
   And your games will fit in RAM

   Imagine 1-Giga RAM
   I wonder if you can.
   No need for left-shifts or setups
   And no booting again and again.

   Imagine all the systems
   Working all life-time!

   You may say I'm a hacker,
   But I'm not the only one.
   Maybe someday I'll be a cracker
   And then I'll make Windows run.

LET IT BE

   When I find my code in tons of trouble,
   Friends and colleagues come to me,
   speaking words of wisdom:
   Write in C.

   As the deadline fast approaches,
   And bugs are all that I can see,
   Somewhere, someone whispers:
   Write in C.

   Write in C, Write in C,
   Write in C, oh, Write in C.
   LOGO's dead and buried,
   Write in C.

   I used to write a lot of FORTRAN,
   For science it worked flawlessly.
   Try using it for graphics!
   Write in C.

   If you've just spent nearly 30 hours,
   Debugging some assembly,
   Soon you will be glad to
   Write in C.

   Write in C, Write in C,
   Write in C, yeah, Write in C.
   BASIC's not the answer.
   Write in C.

   Write in C, Write in C
   Write in C, oh, Write in C.
   Pascal won't quite cut it.
   Write in C.

YESTERDAY

  Yesterday,
  All those backups seemed a waste of pay.
  Now my database has gone away.
  Oh I believe in yesterday.

  Suddenly,
  There's not half the files there used to be,
  And there's a milestone
  hanging over me
  The system crashed so suddenly.

   I pushed something wrong
   What it was I could not say.

   Now all my data's gone
   and I long for yesterday-ay-ay-ay.

   Yesterday,
   The need for back-ups seemed so far away.
   I knew my data was all here to stay,
   Now I believe in yesterday."
