O fair are the tubes in yonder rack mount server
And warm are the banks of capacitors
But fairest of all is my own dear love
With gigabytes of data for ever.

O, I'll take the big end, and you'll take the little end
And I'll access significant bytes before ye
But I and my true love will never meet again
On the hexadecimal highlands of memory.

Tis not for the parting with my scratch file
Tis not for the grief of a core dump
Tis all for the love of an incompatible format
To make all my calculating worthwhile.
