Script for a Hacker's Tear

So here I am once more in the playground of the broken hacks
one more experience, one more entry in the logfile, self - typed
yet another programming suicide overdosed on caffeine and bytes
Too late to say I'll fix it too late to remount the drive
abandoning the listings of projects no longer alive

I'm losing on this VAX, I'm losing with these system calls
I'm losing on this VAX, I'm losing with these system calls
Too much, too soon, too far, to go, too late to type, this hack is over
This hack is over

So here I am once more in the playground of the broken hacks
I'm losing on this VAX, losing with these system calls, this hack is over,
over

Yet another programming suicide overdosed on caffeine and bytes
I'm losing on this VAX, I'm losing with these system calls, this hack is over

Too late to say I'll fix it
Too late to remount the drive
The hack is over
