Lyrics (by Takaaki Furukawa) (Nihongo)

Chris's hard disk crashed and he ran Disk First Aid and he tried Norton Utilities but none of them worked. Oh my dear Solaris, don't let me run fsck Do I have to type /bin/ls again? Tracks to ashes, and Sectors to dust Tracks to ashes, and Sectors to dust It's not your fault Chris, It's the fault of the operating system (Or a girl's cellular phone) If you didn't spill a glass of fake orange juice On your machine. (The spirit of Fourier always stays with you, and Look, at these sane trees all over the place.) Your hard disk won't be like "1984."


Thanks to..

Christopher Penrose, who gave me virtually all the inspirations
for this song.

Shogun, which played the music for the TV show, Tantei Monogatari.
