LOTS is a moment in space;
When the spy fork's gone, it's a lonelier place.
We kissed the program goodbye,
But down inside, you know we never knew why.

The load can reach a new height
When ends don't meet, and the Provost is tight.
I'm glad the staff never knew
I renamed it "FOO"
Just to look out for you.

define Chorus <
      I am a wizard in love
      And I'd run anything
      To tell me when you're around
      And when you login.
      It's a right I defend--over and over again.
      So I run FOO.
>
      Chorus
 
With you eternally mine--
At night, when there's no measure of time--
I wrote the code way back when
Just so that now, I can meet you again.
 
I don't know when you'll appear,
But I will know as soon as you're here.
No fork is ever a waste!
I've renamed it "FOO"
Just to look out for you.

      Chorus

I am a wizard in love,
And I'm watching for you!
You know it's almost unreal
What a wizard can do.
It's a right I defend--over and over again.

      Chorus
