{{quote|When I was one-and-twenty
:A wise man told me oft,
'"Give crowns and pounds and guineas
:But not to Microsoft;
Give pearls away, and rubies,
:But keep your hard drive free.'"
But I was one-and-twenty,
:No use to talk to me.
When I was one-and-twenty
:I heard him say again,
'"The software that they market
:Is full of hurt and pain;
'Tis paid with sighs a plenty
:And sold for endless rue.'"
And I am two-and-twenty,
:And oh, 'tis true, 'tis true.
