Paint it black
(Paint it black)

I see a chatroom
and I want it painted black
No white shit anymore
I want it to turn black

I mailed the admin;
thought it was an illness sign
he said it was a part
of their new web-design

I see a chatroom
and I want it painted black
my IF is looking bad
I'm getting rather sad

My eyes are soaring
it's like staring at the sun
it's rather boring
and it used to be such fun

I see a chatroom
and I want it painted black
the vast majority
would like it to turn black

But will the people
who have power listen up?
when will this nightmare
ever find a way to stop

We see a chatroom
and we want it painted black
but we might stay away
from Venus; till it's black

We hope this song
won't be much needed anymore
'cause we would like
the colours as they were before

We see a chatroom
and we want it painted black
no white shit anymore
we want it to turn black

na na na na na .... osv... fades

Dette er en protestsang mod den hvidfarvning af Venus-chattens baggrund, der stod på fra torsdag den 13. august 1998 til onsdag den 19. august

Plug'n'play '98
(Yesterday)

Plug'n'play
all my time is used on plug'n'play
Windows 98 is here to stay
So now I call it plug'n'pray

Suddenly
Things are not the way it used to be
Something nasty stopped my new PC
The blue screen came so suddenly

Why it had to crash
I don't know; it didn't say
Drag it to the trash
Oh I long for plug'n'play

Plug'n'play
I don't make it through another day
Where are all the games I used to play?
Oh how I long for plug'n'play

Programming an Office Suite in C
(Commissioning a Symphony in C)

So you'll be some MS developer
you're programming an Office Suite in C
to run on the next Windows version
for which there'll be an Office Suite in C

That sound, that's just you who are typing
you get paid with money that they get from hyping
the next coming office suite in C
you're programming an Office suite in C

(interlude)

You have to put in all of these features
that won't be used by most of all the users
don't think about it for you might not be
at work with this office suite in c

when people ask what you're doing
you often must resort to simply lying
or you will have to tell that you are coding
assistants for an
Office Suite
in C
