It was quite a shock to see the Core Dump Blues come up on my screen!
Thanks for getting the attribution straight so fast. Who told you I wrote it?
The version posted was a bit different from the "official" one. ("VAXen"
was never in there, and doesn't really go with PDP-11, for one.) Here it is,
if you're curious:
Segmentation Violation: Core Dumped Blues
Well, my terminal's locked up,
and I ain't got any Mail,
And I can't recall the last time
that my program didn't fail.
I've stacks in my structs;
I've got arrays in my queues;
I've got the:
Segmentation violation -- Core dumped...
blues.
Now if you think that it's nice
that you get what you C,
Then go: illogical statement...
with your whole family!
Cause the Supreme Court ain't the only place
with: Bus error... views;
I've got the:
Segmentation violation -- Core dumped...
blues.
Well on a <"sophisticated" computer>
life should be a breeze,
But with <facilities mgr> in the house,
even magnetic tapes would freeze!
Now you might think that unlike <company>
I'd know who I abuse;
But I've got the:
Segmentation violation -- Core dumped...
blues.
Fill in the <>'s to your heart's content.

P.S. Thanks for moderating; rec.humor was out of hand, and rec.humor.funny
has filled the need nicely.
