The Lyrics

It Is Such a Memory Hog, Windows—

It is such a memory hog, Windows—
One gig just to boot up then fail.
It is such a memory hog, Windows,
For login, bloggin', and e-mail.

The company's not in California
But up where they slurp Starbuck foam.
In 20-plus years, the firm has grown some. . .
Still run by a four-eyed geek gnome.

A monopoly, it simply clobbers
Mercilessly any upstart
That will not kowtow or pay protection.
The firm, like the weather, is dark.

The apps, when they run, are really shitty.
The parity bits are a crock.
So Windows is like a net for fishies—
Intruders seep through and unlock.

It is such a memory hog, Windows—
One gig just to boot up then fail.
It is such a memory hog, Windows,
For login, bloggin', and e-mail.
