So, they offer VSI. . . VSI!
Paying rather handsomely
for us to say good-bye!
You were thinking, thinking, thinking
of the pros and of the cons,
Cups of coffee, you were drinking,
Bloodshot eyes, awake, were blinking
As the nights turned into dawns.
Then you knew! Knew! Knew!
what you would have to do.
And your eyes, they were a-shining
As the papers you were signing
With your pen, pen, pen, pen,
pen, pen, pen.
As the papers you were signing
with your pen.
Then the paperwork was signed;
really signed!
You turned it in with trepidation,
questions still in mind.
You've been working, working, working
fourteen years, and maybe more,
For your job, you were not shirking,
You just knew a bug was lurking
When your program dumped its core.
So you'd look, look, look
in many a graphics book;
To resolve the errant coding
that would keep your jobs exploding
when they ran, ran, ran, ran,
ran, ran, ran.
That would keep your jobs exploding
when they ran.
Hear the calling, far away, far away,
The calling to another station--
Go without delay!
Folks are leaving, leaving, leaving
from HP and from their friends;
Heavy sighs they all are heaving,
Left behind, their friends are grieving,
As each colleague's tenure ends.
Now they're free, free, free
to pursue the dreams they see;
Ah, we see your time affording
many days of sailboarding
on the Gorge, Gorge, Gorge, Gorge,
Gorge, Gorge, Gorge;
Days of sailboarding on Columbia Gorge.
