Losing My Partition

By Francisco Rangel

(To the tune of Losing My Religion by REM)

Oh, drives get bigger
They're bigger, and you
begin to split them.
You start to make partitions
To organize your files
Oh no! A bad resize!
I messed it up.

That's me at the keyboard
That's me at my laptop
Losing my partition
Trying to save all my files
But I don't know if I can do it
Oh, no! Boot sector's crunched.
I hadn't backed it up.
I know that I'll be formatting
I know that I'm not the king
There's nothing left to do but cry

Lost all my pictures
Every system file, my
Pow'rpoint presentations.
Trying to save my notes to you
Now I feel like a stupid fool, fool
Oh, no! I've messed it up
I screwed it up

Partition this
Partition this
The goof of the century
My Deskstar's death.
The sign that told me
that my disk failed.
What if I use undelete,
Or, flailing around?
Now I've lost too much
I thought that I had it covered
I thought that I could convert
I think I thought 'twas worth a try

But that was FAT 16
That was FAT 16
That's me at the server
That's me at the keyboard
Losing my partition
My job is lost, I'm so screwed
Well it looks like I really blew it
Oh, no! I lost some files
My database is gone
I thought RAID was there to help me
I thought it was idiot-proof
I think it should have saved my drive

But it's not just a dream
Try. Fry
Why try?
I lost my Windows theme
Vent some steam
Drink caffeine
Scream
