[Sung to the tune of _Breaking Up Is Hard To Do_ (Neil Sedaka covered it
 (twice), but I think it was written by Carole King)]

	[Entry]
	My system's crashing down doobie doo down down
	My job is crashing down doobie doo down down
	My life is crashing down doobie doo down down
	'Cause backing up was something I didn't do.

	[Verse 1]
	Don't take that disk away from me.
	You'll leave me hanging, not in ecstasy.
	For when it's gone, my job'll be doomed.
	'Cause backing up is hard to do.

	[Verse 2]
	My code is gone, no life for me.
	No buying Ginsu knives from QVC.
	I'll have to hack the weekend through
	'Cause backing up is hard to do.

	[Chorus]
	They say that backing up is hard to do.
	I've never done it so don't know if that's true.
	My career's doomed, 'cause I have no clue.
	Instead of hacking up I wish that I had backed it up back then.

	[Repeat Verse 1]

	[Repeat Entry as Coda]
