Finnegan the Folk Hero |
| In a field of corn is a master’s shoe |
| Click the master’s shoe, there’s a blue-tailed fly |
| Click a blind man’s foot, see a horse’s tail |
| It’s down to Finnegan, the folk hero of HTML |
| This is the tale of a clever sod |
| HTML was his gift from God |
| He slaved all night, coding the master’s site |
| Never paid a cent what was his by rights |
| How the website burns since Finnegan fell! |
| Let’s pray that he returns from web designer hell |
| He’s the only one can fix it, fix it good and well |
| Finnegan, the folk hero of HTML |
| He could stream Quicktime, he could code in Flash |
| He could make your icons dance with Java, then empty out your trash |
| But Finnegan’s dead, rotted clean away |
| Because the bastard master never gave him any pay |
| How the bastard yells cos the website’s down |
| When he taps his URLs all he gets is '404 Not Found' |
| By the coffee machine, screaming Finnegan’s name |
| But the folk hero is dead and there is no-one left to blame |
| We’ve lost our shirts now Finnegan’s gone |
| If he had got his just deserts, we could’ve been cracking merrily on |
| Cos there was just one man could fix it, fix it good and well |
| That’s Finnegan, the folk hero of HTML |
| When the web is quiet on a moonlit night |
| There is phantom code on the master’s site |
| Some say it’s spiders or a bot from hell |
| Like hell! |
| It’s Finnegan, the folk hero of HTML |
