The Lyrics
Just lost our Web site, it failed to boot right.
The CPU hung and then decided to die.
It went without warning, now it's 2 in the morning,
Smell all those RAM chips beginnin' to fry.
Wastin' away again in DeadServerVille
Searching for that strange key labeled Alt
Some people claim that there's some hardware to blame
But I know, it's management's fault.
I don't know the reason, Proxy servers keep freezin'.
And the firewalls block all e-mail except SPAM.
But nothing here's worked right, for more than a fortnight,
And now I must fix it at 2:30 AM
Wastin' away again in DeadServerVille
Searchin' for that strange key labeled Alt
Some people claim that there's some hardware to blame
But I know, it's Change Controls fault
The DBA's steamin', the web developer's screamin',
At the networking guy that just called him a hack.
It's a UNIX mind-bender, but the sys admin can mend 'er,
Or probably could if he didn't smoke crack.
Wastin' away again in DeadServerVille
Searchin' for that strange key labeled Alt
Some people claim that there's some hardware to blame
But I know, it's the directors fault
Solo:
I blew up the laptop, and the pager just won't stop.
Lost my cell phone had to cruise back to work
But the re-org is nearer, soon my job will be clearer,
Unless my new boss is still the same jerk.
Wastin' away again in DeadServerVille
Searchin' for that strange key labeled Alt
Some people claim that there's some hardware to blame
Now I know, it's Microsoft's fault.
Yes and,
Some people claim that there's some hardware to blame
But I know, it's all Bill Gate's fault.
