Intro |
Composed after reading the second edition of Garfinkel and Spafford's Practical Unix and Internet Security (on the beach (!)). Dedicated to Nicola, who's *my* checksum. |
You're My Checksum
Ooh, you say I live
Whatever my users throw at me
In shell, or Fortran or C
Ooh, you say that I'm still untainted
Ooh, you say I live.
You're the best sum
That I've ever had
You're cryptographically stronger
And the longer
You let my root know
I'm trusted and true
The more I love you
You're my checksum.
Ooh, you say I live.
I've had patches galore
But when I resync with you
You reassure
My root that I'm me
And he's happy, happy at $HOME
You're my checksum.
Ooh, you say I live
Whatever the latest scare may be
I've got you, to help me forgive
My root's professional paranoia
Ooh, you say I live.
You're his first check
But far from the last
But once each program is verified
'Gainst your MD5
Then he'll trust the things,
He'll really trust the things that they do
You're my checksum.
Ooh, you say I live.
They're all happy, happy at $HOME
You're my checksum
(Ohh)
You're my checksum
Ooh, you say I live
You, you're my checksum.
