Story behind the song
A friend of mine challenged me to write a song based on file privileges. She's a not well person.
Lyrics
I love that we share the same server
A “who” lets me know that she’s there
A “ps” tells me just what she’s doing
I watch her when she plays solitaire
The other day I issued kill dash 9
It didn’t do what I thought it should
When I tracked down the snafu
I found a message that couldn’t be misunderstood
She’s revoked my permission to love
I’m no longer on her friends list
Revoked my permission to love
I guess I no longer exist
She’s revoked my permission to love
I can’t call tech support for a fix
She’s revoked my permission to love
And in the process, made me a UNIX
I tried to LS her files
Just to see what she was up to
But she’d changed all her protections
And removed me from her group
I decided to call up the big guns
What else can a poor boy do?
But she’d removed my superuser privileges
I couldn’t su to root
She’s revoked my permission to love
I’m no longer on her friends list
Revoked my permission to love
I guess I no longer exist
She’s revoked my permission to love
I can’t call tech support for a fix
She’s revoked my permission to love
And in the process, made me a UNIX
She did a chmod 700 octal on her heart
Even though she swore we’d never part
I guess she’s written me off her flow chart
With no chance to restart
She’s revoked my permission to love
I’m no longer on her friends list
Revoked my permission to love
I guess I no longer exist
She’s revoked my permission to love
I can’t call tech support for a fix
She’s revoked my permission to love
And in the process, made me a UNIX
She’s put a hexadecimal on me
And left me binary
