Computer Science Canada :: View topic - I love my Mac, the song

whenever I want, to plug in a peripheral
it recognizes it right away
I dont have to sweat, and pray for a small miracle
its just great for me
Im as happy as can be
and I have better productivity

I love my Mac
cuz its so dependable, so sensible so beautiful
oh its the only one for me
repeat

theres never a need, to think about security, trojan horses and viruses
they dont stand a chance, they are such a rarity
its just working fine
I have such peace of mind
and theres a bond of a special kind

I love my Mac
cuz its so dependable, so sensible so beautiful
oh its the only one for me
repeat

any software I use, is always so reliable
and I can find almost anything
forums chat groups message boards and newsgroups are commendable
its all there for me
its one big happy family
of Mac enthusiasts from sea to sea

I love my Mac
cuz its so dependable, so sensible so beautiful
oh its the only one for me
repeat

iPods, Macdraw, Appletalk, Powerbooks
iTunes, Quicktime, Final Cut, Appleworks
iMacs, Panther, Firewire, USB iMovie iChat and iDvd
but the greatest one for me
its been the answer to my dreams
its the best app in the land
the funnest program ever known to man
why, Garage Band

I love my Mac
cuz its so dependable, so sensible, so beautiful
oh its the only one for me
repeat

> If b: Dennie tells you so...
> Well, do you believe in UNIX C
> Can hacking save you memory
> And can you tell me why vi's so slow
> Well, I know that you're in love with C
> 'Cause I saw your code on UNIX B
> You just kicked off your shoes

> And while the board was looking 'round

> And while Huffman read a book by Pohl

> (chorus)

> Helter skelter in the summer swelter
> I went in the lab to find some shelter

> C stayed up for ten whole days
> The hackers really were amazed
> Wonderin' how long it all would last.
> Well, both the forums were really great
> Nobody got us all irate
> We had a stroke of luck
> The system did not duck

> 'Cause the hackers kept their code real clean
> The UNDR-shell was really keen
> Do you recall what was the scene
> The Day That UNIX Died
> And we were singin...
> (chorus)
>
> Our programs were all in one place,
> UNIX had run out of space
> With no time left to start again...
> So, Jack be nimble, Jack be quick,
> Use every programming trick
> 'Cause UNIX may soon crash again...
> And as I watched the system fill
> My login process would be killed.
> The system just went down

> The hours went on into the night

[WINDOWS DANCE INTRO]

Lets get down to business...

You enter the house, you wanna get on it (the computer),
but it doesn't let you, you restart a couple times,
your blonde computer's doin crimes, every user whines,
the list of problems isn't words, it's lines.
Bill Gates thought Windows shines, but bugs
is somethin everyone minds.
Nothing works like its meant, you see,
and that's not the way life should be.

when it's in the house, you get an *WARNING SOUND*
when you click the mouse, you get an *WARNING SOUND*
you don't even fool about, you get an *WARNING SOUND*
every time you log out, you get an *WARNING SOUND*
you open a program, but you get an *WARNING SOUND*
but nothing responds, and you get an *WARNING SOUND*
you hope to make bonds, but you get an *WARNING SOUND*
the reason is one, it's simply cause...

CHORUS
Windows sucks!! Windows sucks!!
Windows sucks!! Windows sucks!!
Windows sucks!! Windows sucks!!
Windows sucks!! Windows sucks!!
Windows sucks!! Windows sucks!!
Windows sucks!! Windows sucks!!
Windows sucks!! Windows sucks!!
Windows sucks!! Windows sucks!!

you wanna use it, but it refuses,
you perform simple tasks, but you confuse it.
you can't do anything, cause everything screws up,
you think 'buttttt', Windows thinks "ehehe (evil laugh), shut up, i'll keep screwin you up!"
it's times like this when you think "this is it",
you believe the service needs a visit.
the crash makes you wanna bash & lash & smash
the piece of crap, not tap, attack, whack, put it in a sack.

when it's in the house, you get an *WARNING SOUND*
when you click the mouse, you get an *WARNING SOUND*
you don't even fool about, you get an *WARNING SOUND*
every time you log out, you get an *WARNING SOUND*
you open a program, but you get an *WARNING SOUND*
but nothing responds, and you get an *WARNING SOUND*
you hope to make bonds, but you get an *WARNING SOUND*
the reason is one, it's simply cause...

[CHORUS] (x 2)

Daves I know

Bruce: [Spoken] Hi, I'm Bruce McCulloch. I'd like to tell you about the Daves I know.

[Singing: ]
These are the Daves I know, I know
These are the Daves I know
These are the Daves I know, I know
These are the Daves I know

David Hoffman
He works in my dad's store
He's worked here for 12 years
He'll probably work here for more

These are the Daves I know, I know
These are the Daves I know
These are the Daves I know, I know
These are the Daves I know

Dave Gort
I've known since I was six
In grade eight he broke his leg
So we got drunk and sick

These are the Daves I know, I know
These are the Daves I know
These are the Daves I know, I know
These are the Daves I know

Some of them are Davids
[Dave Gort: But most of us are Daves]
They all have their own hands
But they come from different moms

These are the Daves I know, I know
These are the Daves I know
These are the Daves I know, I know
These are the Daves I know

Dave Jadiski
Man, this cat can swing
He weighs almost 50 pounds
And he delivers my paper on time

These are the Daves I know, I know
These are the Daves I know
These are the Daves I know, I know
These are the Daves I know

Dave Capisano
I hardly know him
...

These are the Daves I know, I know
These are the Daves I know
These are the Daves I know, I know
These are the Daves I know

[Next two measures sung by the Daves Bruce knows: ] We are the Daves he knows, he knows
We are the Daves he knows
We are the Daves he knows, he knows
We are the Daves he knows

Some of us them are Davids
But most of us are Daves
We all have our own hands
But we come from different moms

These are the Daves I know, I know
[Daves: We are the Daves he knows, he knows]
[All: These are the Daves]
