MIDI - BATTLE CRY OF FREEDOM click on the WHITE title for the midi

As we rally round the penguin, Rally once agin,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom.

1.
Yes we'll rally around the penguin, we'll rally once again,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom,
As we liberate PCs in the cities and the plain,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom.

(CHORUS)
Our LINUX forever, hurrah Tux, hurrah,
Down with the SCO tree, Tux is the star,
As we rally round the penguin, Rally once agin,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom.

As we rally round the penguin, Rally once agin,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom.

2.
We will spring into the call of the techies come before,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom,
As we fill the Linux ranks with TEN million penguins more,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom.

(CHORUS)
Our LINUX forever, hurrah Tux, hurrah,
Down with the SCO tree, Tux is the star,
As we rally round the penguin, Rally once agin,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom.

As we rally round the penguin, Rally once agin,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom.

3.
We will welcome to our numbers, all users free and brave,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom,
Though we may be software poor we'll not be a Micro$lave,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom.

(CHORUS)
Our LINUX forever, hurrah Tux, hurrah,
Down with the SCO tree, Tux is the star,
As we rally round the penguin, Rally once again,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom.

As we rally round the penguin, Rally once agin,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom.

4.
So we're coming to the call from the East and from the West,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom,
To dump activation's chains for the the GPL OS,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom.

(CHORUS)
Our LINUX forever, hurrah Tux, hurrah,
Down with the SCO tree, Tux is the star,
As we rally round the penguin, Rally once agin,
Shouting the Linux cry of freedom.

I placed this on the "back boards" with the original anti Linux version to play it safe as that is where the AM tends to put new song parodists and updaters anyway.

I see this as both the replacement for the original anti Linux version and as an American Patriot substitute for the "Linux Nationale" parody-update on the Usenet Linux threads.

Doug from upland is only a temporary member of the Coral Snake Ping List. If he has time I would like him to come to the "back boards" and see what he thinks of my songs. ;c) Guns, Linux and Liberty. ;c)

I have another suggestion for the Linux anthem.

[Coral Snake]

Sorry, MICRO$OFT got to this first when they invented Palladium, .NET, PassPort and Product Activation. We'll Just have to stick with Battle Cry of Freedom. ;c)

Guns, Linux and Liberty. ;c)

[Coral Snake]

Yes Mr. Engineer, maybe YOU shold be the next one to be sued by SCO/Micro$oft for taking their anthem and trying to hand it over to Linux.

You get three guesses as to what the word "their" hyper links to. ;c) Guns, Linux and Liberty. ;c)
