(Adapted from "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life")
Cheer up, MaJoC; you know what they say ...
MS-DOS is bad
It can really make you mad
The Pentium can make you swear and curse
When you chew on Intel's gristle
Don't grumble, make it whistle
And end up getting back at them in verse
And ...
Always look at the bright side of DOS [whistle]
Always look at the bright side of DOS [whistle]
They'll tell you that it's quick
With sixty-four-bit tricks
But back in Real Mode it's an 088
Whose single-tasking trance
Will give you every chance
To send out for a pizza while you wait
So ...
Always look at the bright side of DOS [whistle]
Always look at the bright side of DOS [whistle]
Its floating point is shit
When you find that it
Thinks zero equals 255; it's true
That Intel say they'll swap
Each crucial megaflop
But strangely that'll not apply to you
So ...
Always look on the bright side of bugs [whistle]
As your spreadsheet pegs you up by the lugs [whistle]
Come on, Brian, cheer up ...
Worse things happen in C, y'know ...
I mean, what have you got to lose?
You hack up code from nothing,
the end result is nothing;
what have you lost? --- nothing!
