The Lyrics

If you're seeing this because you've hit a page that isn't there (now, that gives me another idea), better luck next time. All errors need to be sung as individual digits (e.g. 400 is four-oh-oh, etc)
What you see's an error 404
Are you here in error? 404
For this number is a sign
You ain't got to where you're tryin'
So it's showin' error 404

All client-side errors: 4xx
Here's some more info for yez, 4xx
You should get an explanation
(That may leave you more perplexed)
When the server return is 4xx

Don't confuse it with this 'un: 403
For that code means "Forbidden", 403
Not lack of authentication
That would give you err 401
Though the reason ain't hidden: 403

There's bad syntax inside it: 400
Though your browser retried it: 400
You've got troubles when online
'Cause your connection's always dyin'
Problem ain't worldwide, it 400

But this page is error 404
Now, don't view it in terror, 404
Though address ain't the right one
Trust me, there are millions more
Where you won't get an error 404
Hope this helped.. with error 404

Never heard the OS at all, so no vote. Although I do think this is a clever read.

This is perfect for Chucky's 404 page. Particularly enjoyed errors / for yez.

I'm with Rex and Stephen... funny and revealing of 'a certain deeper knowledge' than the rest of us!
