Alternatives, for fun

This doesn't quite fit any of the existing threads.

Thought Scotz and Sprinkles'd like this.


The following should be the lyrics to the song - Beatles' Eleanor Rigby

Eleanor Rigby
Sits at the keyboard
And waits for a line on the screen
Lives in a dream

Waits for a signal
Finding some code
That will make the machine do some more.
What is it for?

All the lonely users, where do they all come from?
All the lonely users, why does it take so long?

Guru MacKenzie
Typing the lines of a program that no one will run;
Isn't it fun?
Look at him working,
Munching some chips as he waits for the code to
compile; Where is the style?

All the lonely users, where do they all come from?
All the lonely users, why does it take so long?

Eleanor Rigby
Crashes the system and loses 6 hours of work;
What is it worth?
Guru MacKenzie
Wiping the blood off his hands as he walks from
the grave; Nothing was saved.

All the lonely users, where do they all come from?
All the lonely users, why does it take so long?
