Come and listen to a story 'bout a man name Gates
A poor nerdy geek, couldn't get himself no dates
And then one day he was writtin' up some code
And up on his screen came a program called DOS mode

Plain code, Trademark T

Well the first thing you know ol' Gates a millionaire
His geek friends said, Gates you really got one there
They said on the market is the place you wanna be
So he loaded up his code to sell on ever-ry PC

Data pools, Label bars

Well, that ol' DOS was good but it needed an upgrade
Something for the common man so he won't be afraid
So then he looked at Apple and he got himself a clue
He'd make a graphics interface - Yes! that is what
he'd do

Mouse clicks, Pictures too

Out of this was born Windows version three point one
It was better than that good ol' DOS the way it got
things done
But it was just an interim and had a ways to go
Cause the internet was comin' and he had to make a
show

Web Sites, Dot Coms

Well now the internet was born and Billy looked around
His Windows three point one was gettin' less and less
per pound
So he had to meet the market and he had to do this
quick
And Windows ninety five came just in the time of nick

System Registrys, Network Ready

Well ninety five would work ok until it would go bust
He needed stronger OS hosts that were much more robust
He told his staff to write some code that could do
some real browsin'
And from this high paid programming staff came a
Windows called two thousand

Plug and Play, Internet Friendly

Well now it's time to say good bye to Bill and all his
men
And they would like to thank you folks for kindly
loggin' in
You're all invited back next time with your ability
To test the beta version of the next thing that will
be

Holograms, Who Knows? Y'all come back now, ya hear?
