The Antitrust Hillbillies

I was looking for something to say about the Justice Department's actions against Microsoft when I realized the answer. Don't say it. Sing it.

The Antitrust Hillbillies

Now listen to the story 'bout a man named Bill
Redmond Zillionaire tryin' to stay king of the hill
Tired of losin out to Netscape in the silly browser war
Bundled Explorer with '95 , that's the way to score

Market share, that is,
35% and climbin'

Meanwhile Janet Reno has got problems of her own
Calls for Special prosecutors keep comin' on her phone
She figures out a method to make headlines go her way
File suit against Microsoft, Million Bucks A Day

greenbacks, that is,
dead presidents,cold cash

Now Gates and Reno go to court and it may be a full year,
For the lawyers to get paid and for all the dust to clear.
But you can still annoy Bill today and put him in a bend:
Just ask where applications start and where does Windows™ end?
