/* in youre strongest sea chanty */

When all is said and done
Pirates we be
sailing from isle to isle
through the Science of the C.

/* The Global truths */

Our code may be bereft
of common sense and brevity
but happy are we to know
that we'll figure it out eventually.

We sleep very little
our dreams overwhelmed with coded anxiety
filled with various little "features"
from which we're never free.

We live and breathe Unix
==certainly no fresh air for we!
And we haven't seen the light of day
In at least a week--maybe three!

Our heads be always underwater
like the fishies in the sea....
But we can quickly hack a function
before we turn a shade of gree(n).

It is a universal truth that when
you subtract our combined IQ from e
the answer is 42....
and i really don't know where i'm going 
	with this particular stanz-y.

/* The Local truths (sung with humor) */

Though experience we have little
we are like the common flea
content, we are, to know
that we itch the professors at BC.

We stick our bottoms at IPS
and laugh in the face of Lauri
and the other systems admins
who restrict our usage of the system D.

We enter the Darkened Effin Chamber
with great energies 
to exit many days later
with a half-hacked, mostly-working piece of 
	coded-C.

one more for the Gipper
pirates are we
sailing from isle to isle
through the Science of the C.
