MIDI - TENTING ON THE OLD CAMP GROUND click on the WHITE title for the midi

1.
We're surfing tonight on the Linux box.
We see something to cheer
SCO's pump 'n' dump was found out now,
As SCO execs should fear.

(CHORUS)
Many are the hearts that are happy tonight,
Now our Linux shall stay free;
SCO execs in jumpsuits of orange bright
Means penguin victory.
Surfing tonight,
Surfing tonight,
Surfing on the Linux Box.

2.
Been surfing tonight on the Linux box,
Watching SCO FUD and lie,
Their pump 'n' dump and cooked up books,
Mean SCO execs, "Good bye!"

(CHORUS)
Many are the hearts that are happy tonight,
Now our Linux shall stay free;
SCO execs in jumpsuits of orange bright
Means penguin victory.
Surfing tonight,
Surfing tonight,
Surfing on the Linux Box.

3.
We are tired of FUD 'bout the Linux box,
Soon it will all be gone,
SCO group's position is quicksand,
So FUD and lies, so long.

(CHORUS)
Many are the hearts that are happy tonight,
Now our Linux shall stay free;
SCO execs in jumpsuits of orange bright
Means penguin victory.
Surfing tonight,
Surfing tonight,
Surfing on the Linux Box.

4.
We'll see their big crash on the Linux box,
With more investor fear;
Darl's crooked corperation falls,
and they will be in tears.

(CHORUS)
Many are the hearts that are happy tonight,
Now our Linux shall stay free;
SCO execs in jumpsuits of orange bright
Means penguin victory.
Surfing tonight,
Surfing tonight,
Surfing on the Linux Box.

SURFING ON THE LINUX BOX.

Stuck In The Middle

(with apologies to 'Stealer's Wheel')
by Vennt, from YahooBoards, via a Groklaw poster, slightly touched-up by TJY.


                  Well I don't know
                  Why I started this fight
                  I got the feeling that
                  Something ain't right
                  I'm so scared in case
                  The judge plays it fair
                  And I'm wondering
                  If I'll lose all my hair

                  IBM to the left of me
                  Red Hat to the right
                  Here I am
                  Stuck in the middle with SCO

                  Yes I am stuck in
                  The middle with SCO
                  And I'm wondering
                  Where it is I should go
                  It's so hard to keep
                  This egg off my face
                  Losing control
                  Yeah I'm all
                  Over the place

                  IBM to the left of me
                  Red Hat to the right
                  Here I am
                  Stuck in the middle with SCO

                  Well we started out
                  With nothing
                  And we're proud our
                  stock price is so high
                  And ol' Microsoft came calling
                  Slapped us on the back and said...
                  Please
                  Please

                  Tried to make
                  Some sense off it all
                  But I can see 
                  It makes no sense at all
                  Think that judge is going to
                  lock all the doors
                  I don't think
                  That I can take anymore

                  IBM to the left of me
                  Red Hat to the right
                  Here I am
                  Stuck in the middle with SCO

                  (Doesn't it feel great to see the tide turning at last?)

He didn't creat a monster, Just a new DFU imitator for the PATRIOTIC Linux/techie FReepers out there. ;c)

To DFU:
It would be a good idea to watch for this troll on your own song threads. He might think you are a monster too. ;c)

To call yourself a "DFU imitator" is an insult to DFU.

I think that that should be for DFU himself to decide if he should ever come to the "backboards" and look at mine and the the rest of the "newbie" song parodists' material that tends to get "bumped" here or posted here deliberately.

I would like to remind you that one of the strong Lunux/GPL
supporters here screen named shadowman99 is a personal friend of DFU.

>> "I would like to remind you that one of the strong Lunux/GPL

Not that it matters much, but no I am not.

I recall I made a smart-ass remark to the tune of "I knew JFK, and you're no JFK" where I said "I know DFU, and you're no DFU".

That was before you found religion or whatever. I've kept it zipped since then because I frankly don't know what to make of you lately.
