Oh, he sold the KDF9 (1973)

Words by Tom Anderson, David Appleton and John Lloyd to the tune of Galway Bay


Oh he sold the KDF9 to buy a Volvo,
The rest of us don't think that's very fair,
For we used the old machine far more than he did,
So why can't everybody have a share?

For he's not the only one who wants a Volvo,
360, we have got our eyes on you,
By this time next year you too will be at Dacoll,
Elizabeth will have a Volvo too.

Will Brian ever get his new computers?
We hope they're here by 1983.
Is this the reason why he's off to Moscow,
Negotiating with the K.G.B?

If the U.G.C. knew what we did with hardware,
We're sure we'd never get a 168,
But we tell them that we need it for our users,
They won't find out the truth till it's too late.
