It's a long way to the top if you're working in IT

I have way too long of a ride to work, but luckily I have Siruis radio to make the trip better. It rocks and keeps me from having to listen to a DJ in the morning ramble on about stuff I don't care about. Really if I wanted that I'd listen to myself talk.

This morning though I had on "The Boneyard" a pretty kick ass hard rock station. They were rcanking some old ACDC song called "It's a long way to the top" and it got me thinking about how hard it is working in IT. Of course this prompted me to sing along with my own words. If you are a fan of the song you should be able to hear it in your head as you read the new lyrics. If not surf on over to itunes or something and listen to it.

Backing up the server
writing it to tape
gotta write protect it
make sure that it’s safe
Friggin late
seventh day
gotta go home
get some sleep
Gettin' paged
Gettin' called
I tell you folks
It's harder than it looks

It's a long way to the top
If you’re working in IT
It's a long way to the top
If you’re working in IT
If you think it's easy doin' ugrades man
Try doin the whole frigging LAN
It's a long way to the top
If you’re working in IT

Stupid virus
Make you wanna cry
trashing all your data
Know the reason why
no updates
missing certs
Gettin' kicked off
of the LAN
Gettin' pissed
getting slammed
That's how it goes
working for the man

It's a long way to the top
If you’re working in IT
It's a long way to the top
If you’re working in IT
If you wanna run MAC and PC’s
Look out it's rough and mean
It's a long way to the top
If you’re working in IT
