Basic Subroutines (Yellow Submarine)

Basic Subroutines (Yellow Submarine)

We all code using basic subroutines...

Not many people know that the Beatles were actually very good computer programmers. Some of their early work was rejected because it was written with a computer programming theme. This early version of "Yellow Submarine" was rejected by their producers, and eventually re-written to become a top favorite.

Basic Subroutines

In the town where I was born,
Lived a man who ha-ted C,
And he told us of his life,
And his brand of subroutines,

And we code on 'till we're done,
On our round computer screens,
And we code just like we're slaves,
In our Basic subroutines,

We all code using Basic subroutines,
Basic subroutines, Basic subroutines,
We all code using Basic subroutines,
Basic subroutines, Basic subroutines.

And our friends are all aboard,
Many more of them code next door,
And the band begins to play.

(Trumpets play)

We all code using Basic subroutines,
Basic subroutines, Basic subroutines,
We all code using Basic subroutines,
Basic subroutines, Basic subroutines.

(Full speed ahead, Mr. Parker, full speed ahead!
Full speed over here, sir!
Action stations! Action stations!
Aye, aye, sir, fire!
Captain! Captain!)

As we live a life of ease
Every one of us has all we need,(has all we need)
Gaze into, the computer screen,(gaze into the computer screen)
and our Basic (in our Basic) subroutines. (subroutines) ( Hahaha! )

We all code using Basic subroutines,
Basic subroutines, Basic subroutines,
We all code using Basic subroutines,
Basic subroutines, Basic subroutines.

(fading)

We all code using Basic subroutines,
Basic subroutines, Basic subroutines,
We all code using Basic subroutines,
Basic subroutines, Basic subroutines.
