Ok… oh, that's very nice of you. Thank you, wow, this is vegas. I got three microphones! I feel like Kenny Loggins.

Hi, my name is wes, I'm from way up in Canada, and I run a website called deadtroll dot com, so check it out if you feel like it. This Is a song I wrote about some very special people who make sure your computer works. They're called "System Administrators", and they're very important.

(playing guitar)

There’s a guy who works in another room, or on another floor,
He’s the one you call, when your document ain’t there no more
he’s probably a boy, but he might be a girl, or something in between
he’s the only one in the office who knows what “PC Load Letter” means

He’s your system administrator
he’s probably into comic books
and you tremble in fear when you have to hear
one of his “what a dummy” looks

got a virus, lost your password, or you just can’t print
in an hour he’ll show up and then he’ll crouch and squint,
he’ll fight to save your files, he might be there all day
but sometimes he just presses “caps lock” and then walks away
but hey! Suddenly my password works! Hoooray!

Hooray hooray,
happy sys admin day
I’m gonna buy my guy a gift to say
“Having you around means I get to stay…
stupid, and uninformed…

and I can keep opening dot e x e email attachments
and forgetting my mother’s maiden name
and I can keep naming files with spaces and ampersands and colons
cause you’ll fix it all for me!

Ohhhhh!
I’ll give you a cake
I’ll give you a hug
I’ll buy the “world’s best system administrator” mug
just help me out,
system administrator
delete my “recently viewed websites” file
System administrator
restore my network settings so I can find my F: drive
system administrator
Uh… plug in my mouse
system administrator

piss him off and you’ll be fired by tomorrow morn
‘cause he’s the guy who knows that you were surfing porn
So don't forget to be nice to your
system administratooooooooooooor
