Freebsd Fortunes 5: 971 of 2298 |
Oh I'm just a typical American boy
From a typical American town.
I believe in God and Senator Dodd
And keeping old Castro down.
And when it came my time to serve
I knew "Better Dead Than Red",
But when I got to my old draft board,
Buddy, this is what I said:
Chorus:
Sarge, I'm only eighteen, I've got a ruptured spleen,
And I always carry a purse!
I've got eyes like a bat and my feet are flat,
And my asthma's getting worse!
Yes, think of my career and my sweetheart dear,
And my poor old invalid aunt!
Besides I ain't no fool, I'm a-going to school
And I'm a-working in a defense plant!
-- Phil Ochs, "Draft Dodger Rag"

Oh Lord, won't you buy me a 4BSD?
My friends all got sources, so why can't I see?
Come all you moby hackers, come sing it out with me:
To hell with the lawyers from AT&T!

Oh, the Slithery Dee, he crawled out of the sea.
He may catch all the others, but he won't catch me.
No, he won't catch me, stupid ol' Slithery Dee.
He may catch all the others, but AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!
