Gilligan's Cell Phone (to the tune of Gilligan's Island, of course)
Just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale
A tale of fateful phone
That started out ‘bout like the rest,
Stripped down right to it’s bones.
The phone’s OS was old and slow
The firmware locked--no key
By bastards who set all the rules
At A T & T, at A T & T
The phone itself could do so much
But wasn’t worth the cost
If not for the hackers on the modder’s for’m
The Moto would be lost, the Moto would be lost
Hours, and weeks, and days were lost as I tried to free this phone
From A T & T
From Certificates,
From corporate greed and control,
By flashing ROM,
Seem editing, and DRM’s
Here on Gilligan’s cell phone.
To the rescue comes the Incredible,
I’ve waited a long, long time
Put up with so damn many things
It’s a freakin’ crime.
If I had an Incredible
I’d free the world from plight
I’d Tweet and publish on Facebook
Of the Apple/Windows blight
I’d blog, I’d post, I’d send email
That other phones are crude
Like Robinson Crusoe,
They’re primitive and they’re screwed
So soon ANDROID will save the world
The Incredible and it’s clones
Will help us all proclaim as one,
No more Gilligan’s cell phones!
