Parody Song Title:
"I Write Vaporware"
The Lyrics
I was codin' a hack, waiting for bloated, clumsy Windows muck to load
I threw in some hexadecimal sex as a little joke.
When you're coding in this Windows-muck hash, you must realize
That McNealy was right to call it a "hairball" when he did apprise
People about the load of crap from up in Redmond land.
But that's OK, because I've hacked it in every software brand.
I write vaporware, man
In my vap'rous lair, man,
I get no fresh air, man,
I've got unbathed hair, man,
5-day-old underwear, man,
I use all software.
