""Puff the Fractal Dragon""

No plain fanfold paper
could hold that fractal Puff

He grew so fast no plotting pack
could shrink him far enough.

Compiles and simulations
grew so quickly tame

And swapped out all their data space
when Puff pushed his stack frame.

Chorus:
Puff the fractal dragon
was written in C

And frolicked while processes switched
in mainframe memory.

Puff the fractal dragon
was written in C

And frolicked while processes switched
in mainframe memory.

Puff, he grew so quickly
while others moved like snails

And mini-Puffs would perch themselves
on his gigantic tail

All the student hackers
loved that fractal Puff

But DCS did not like Puff
and finally said, "Enough!"

(chorus)
Puff used more resources
than DCS could spare.

The operator killed Puff's job
he didn't seem to care.

A gloom fell on the hackers
it seemed to be the end

But Puff trapped the exception
and grew from naught again!
(chorus)
