The Lyrics

C isn't really that bad. But sometimes debugging C code is a pain.

When I run my code through C compiler
A screen of errors come to me
It really gets me saying
"I hate C!"
And when there's something wrong with pointers
- core dump it is gonna be
Core dumps make me yelling
"I hate C!"

I hate C, I hate C, I hate C, I hate C -
Is Perl the word of wisdom?
I hate C

When the size of array is exceeded
owerflow it's certainly
It's crashing and I'm shouting
"I hate C!"
Weak typecast and poor string handling
is a thing which's bugging me -
What would be my statement?
"I hate C!"

I hate C, I hate C, I hate C, I hate C -
Will Java be the answer?
I hate C
I hate C, I hate C, I hate C, I hate C -
Fortran's good for science
I hate C

(solo)

I hate C, I hate C, I hate C, I hate C -
Though Pascal's dead as doornail
I hate C

When the deadline of the project's closing
I really wanna say *argv[ ]!
Fight is is never ending
I hate C
Now code compiles, but is it buggy?
I don't know, but soon we'll see
flaky it's for certain
I hate C

I hate C, I hate C, I hate C, I hate C -
Should I switch to VB?
I hate C
I hate C, I hate C, I hate C, I hate C -
C++ is better,
I hate C
I hate C, I hate C, I hate C, I hate C -
- At least it's not Assembler,
I hate C

I log on and start using Delphi
The only dev tool that's for me
But even worse than Access
I hate C ;-)

I see what you mean, what you mean, what you mean, v-basic works much better then that dirty rotten C...

Great stuff. A nice contrast to this one posted a couple of months ago

As a C lover, I should really give this a low mark. As a parody lover, though, I just had to give it 5's :-)

Having seen the source code for a few games done in C, I can get a good idea of the frustration behind this song. 5's all round!

An A+ for this C-bashing parody! As far as I'm concerned, C is for Cookie! That good enough for me!
