Most are not mine. They can be found on many pages.

Some more:

Yesterday

Yesterday
All those backups seemed a waste of pay.
Now my database has gone away.
Oh I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly,
There's not half the files there used to be,
And there's a milestone
hanging over me
The system crashed so suddenly.

I pushed something wrong
What it was I could not say.
Now all my data's gone
and I long for yesterday-ay-ay-ay.

Yesterday,
The need for back-ups seemed so far away.
I knew my data was all here to stay,
Now I believe in yesterday.

Now thats a compliment.

Comes just in a moment when I really need it.

As for the why, I can only refer to skyfish's signature: "In Vino Veritas" or to the Mysteries of Eleusis.
