TCP Blues<\/a><\/p>\n

Well I came in\u00a0 this morning and I heard the news
\nIt seems some hacker had something to prove
\nThe system monitor showed all sites black
\nI guess the server is under attack
\nWell you all know the truth
\nI got the TCP blues<\/p>\n

Send me a SYN I’ll send you an ACK
\nGotta retransmit, slide that window back
\nICMP don’t give me no ping
\nListen to the fans on that router sing
\nYou all know the truth
\nI got the TCP blues<\/p>\n

Service packs I installed every one
\nGot a email from redmond and another from sun
\nbuffer overflow, DDOS
\nGuess this system didn’t pass the test
\nBlack hat you know the truth
\nI got the TCP blues<\/p>\n

Seems our firewall had a major flaw
\nOpen wireless behind it and you know it’s the law
\nSomeone did some wardriving
\nThe sins of youth
\nYou all know the truth
\nI got the TCP blues<\/p>\n

Packet loss, I can’t find the cause
\nOur ISP says our network has flaws
\nCCNE’s got manuals I haven’t got to yet
\nThis whole damn network’s got to go to the vet
\nYou all know the truth I got the TCP blues<\/p>\n

Every single protocol every single port
\nConnection failure or connection abort
\nMy default gateway’s somewhere, but it ain’t heard the news
\nYou all know the truth I got the TCP blues<\/p>\n

Our web site’s got no index, it’s giving 404
\nOur boss just heard the news and I know the score
\nIf things don’t get better I’m gonna have to go
\nGet myself a ticket to mexico
\nYou all know the truth
\nI got the TCP blues<\/p>\n

Someone get me out of here, blue screen of death
\nOn some systems it’s green, on some a dump got left
\nI got errors microsoft hasn’t got to yet
\nSomeone tell me what registry key to set
\nYou all know the truth
\nI got the TCP blues<\/p>\n

The RAID array’s gone south, Iron Mountain lost the backup tapes
\nThis is turning into one of those really bad scrapes
\nSomeone somewhere said I should hit the 80 proof
\nThere’s gotta be an anticdote
\nTo the TCP blues<\/p>\n

Well someone go into the server room and hit the EPO
\nWe’ll sit there in the silence and just enjoy the show
\nIt’s gotta happen sometime, I got nothing left to prove
\nIt’s a proven cure
\nto the TCP blues<\/p>\n

Shut the power off
\nCall carnival
\nGo on a cruise<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
