Yesterday
When this little parody[98] of a John Lennon song started getting passed around the Internet, it got sent to me about a hundred times! What better place to put it than here?
| Yesterday, |
| All those backups seemed a waste of pay. |
| Now my database has gone away. |
| Oh I believe in yesterday. |
| Suddenly, |
| There’s not half the files there used to be, |
| And there’s a milestone hanging over me |
| The system crashed so suddenly. |
| I pushed something wrong |
| What it was I could not say. |
| Now all my data’s gone |
| and I long for yesterday-ay-ay-ay. |
| Yesterday, |
| The need for backups seemed so far away. |
| I knew my data was all here to stay, |
| Now I believe in yesterday. |
