DA VINCI'S NOTEBOOK
- The Gates LyricsWorkin' on a laptop, close to the end
of a job I've been doing since half past ten
I don't believe that it's frozen again,
the system has gone down-o, down-o, down-o;
I don't believe that it's frozen again,
the system has gone down-O.
So I took it down to the help desk guy,
I said "make it better or I'm gonna cry."
He said, "I'm sorry, your computer has died,
the data can no longer be found-o, found-o, found-
o."
He said, "I'm sorry your computer has died,
the data can no longer be found-O."
To the roof with the laptop I did go
over to the edge and I gave it a throw,
and when it arrived seven stories below
it really made a mighty fine sound-o, sound-o, sound-o,
when it arrived seven stories below,
it really made a mighty fine sound-O.
Well, that didn't do enough to ease my pain
so I went down to Dulles and I got on a plane
Sayin' "This is all Billy Gates's fault,
I'm gonna be trackin' him down-o, down-o, down-o."
"This is all Billy Gates's fault,
I'm gonna be trackin' him down-O."
Touched down in Seattle and got off the plane
Hit Starbucks to get out of the rain
Paid all of my dough for a thimble of joe
full o' foam and the cinnamon brown-o, brown-o, brown-
o,
all of my dough for a thimble of joe
full o' foam and the cinnamon brown-O.
When the Gates found out about my plan
he packed up his bag, turned tail and ran
Megaloman took it out on the lam
and hid way underground-o, ground-o, ground-o.
Megaloman took it out on the lam
and hid way underground-O.
Well the Gates been a-runnin' ever since that day,
he thinks he can hide but he can't get away.
When I finally find his little skinny behind
Gonna kick it all over this town-o, town-o, town-o.
finally find his little skinny behind
Gonna kick it all over this town.
of a job I've been doing since half past ten
I don't believe that it's frozen again,
the system has gone down-o, down-o, down-o;
I don't believe that it's frozen again,
the system has gone down-O.
