Alas, the young man seemed very stupid indeed,
He would chat on IRC while listening to Creed
He would chat on IRC while listening to Creed
He felt like learning to program in CGI
But always thought it would be easier to die
He searched the net for helpful hints.
When found them he started on his caffeine mints (get them at think geek)
Then he telnets to his Linux box
It was a masq server for he didn't like socks
He took his time to start the code
First was a shell script that told him of his system load
Second came the perl, for his eggdrop's logs
A silly mistake was where he got bogged
Finding out his stupidity within
He found out his perl was in /usr/bin
He fixed up his script and it all works now
But his mum wants the room tidy and is chucking a cow
He celebrates what he has learnt with a hot cup o coffee
And some stupid sweet that tastes like off toffee
