The Lyrics
DKTOS? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jd-UduxGtIE
They said that I should try BASIC
And just ignore Prolog and SMALL
Avoid Python, Pascal, and Lisp now
And Java, C, and COBOL
I'm not too old
Or so I'm told --
It's child's play
These data types are a hindrance
And subroutines make me annoyed
These variables are a nuisance
I think that I'm lost in the Void
A treeview node?
Compiled code?
Jagged arrays?
This programming's so aggravating
It's just like a tangle of twine
I don't know just what I'm creating
I think it just said "I'm alive!"
I run the code
PCs explode
This bytes my A
And just ignore Prolog and SMALL
Avoid Python, Pascal, and Lisp now
And Java, C, and COBOL
I'm not too old
Or so I'm told --
It's child's play
These data types are a hindrance
And subroutines make me annoyed
These variables are a nuisance
I think that I'm lost in the Void
A treeview node?
Compiled code?
Jagged arrays?
This programming's so aggravating
It's just like a tangle of twine
I don't know just what I'm creating
I think it just said "I'm alive!"
I run the code
PCs explode
This bytes my A

I didn't even know that Judas Priest had any songs in the 70's... I probably understood about 3 words in your parody because I'm not computer savvy at all.
A little to Techie for my grasp, but it flows well..555
Your 'puter parodies are always recursive loop-y! Great codin' daVinci!
As a programmer by profession, I took a byte out of this binary masterpiece!
Suppose to only recognize one's and zeros, but will enter fives anyway...
Giving you 0011 0101's for this fine write!!!
(Artistry) Once again, Rex, you pull a deep cut out that gives a fresh look at the artist. Here for your parody, it works...but it's simply just not a laugh grabber for me.
(Artistry) I recognise a few of the terms, but other than that this was an over-the-head parody. Kinda short, but that's not your fault really. Interesting idea, 555.
There's a code called "Lisp"? lol. I tried a long time ago with Basic - anyway, I've seen Dave do enough scripting to know I don't want to do it - don't have the typing speed or accuracy anyway.

Hmmm, well I got it (as Jack mentioned I like scripting) and can relate, won't say I got any big laughs out of it, but it was a solid write.
