MVS IS BREAKING MY HEART
(BONEY FINGERS)

--OR --

PATHETIQUE AND CRITIQUE IN 0-F MINOR
FOR SYSTEMS, OPERATIONS, AND DEVELOPMENT
OPUS NUMBER 2.3

WORDS: ANNE ASHLEY & DAVE THEWLIS
MUSIC: HOYT AXTON

IF IT IPLS THEN JES WON'T START,
AND IF IT GETS UP THEN IT FALLS APART.
MVS IS BREAKING MY HEART!
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

THE SYSTEM IS CRASHING, I'M HAVING A FIT,
AND DSS DOESN'T HELP A BIT,
A SHOVEL CAME WITH THE DEBUGGING KIT.
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

CHORUS: WORK YOUR FINGERS TO THE BONE AND WHAT DO YOU GET?
BONEY FINGERS, BONEY FINGERS.

THE SRM IS A TURKEY IN DISGUISE,
AND MF/1 IS TELLING ME LIES:
START A JOB AND THE WHOLE THING DIES!
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

THE MEMORIES WON'T COMMUNICATE,
AND ASM SIMPLY DOESN'T RELATE,
SWAPPING SEEMS TO BE CONTROLLED BY FATE.
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

CHORUS

THE CONTROL BLOCK STRUCTURE IS REALLY A MESS
WHO DESIGNED IT ARMONK WON'T CONFESS
INbREEDING AND INCEST IS OUR BEST GUESS, BUT
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.
1
THERE STILL EXISTS A CVT,
BUT IT LOST OUT TO THE ASCB,
AND WHERE THE HELL IS MY TCB?
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

ADDRESS SPACES ARE ALL THE RAGE,
MY TCB MUST BE OUT IN A PAGE,
WE THINK THE ARCHITECT'S KEPT IN A CAGE!
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

I CAN'T GET DISPATCHED, WITHOUT A DOUBT,
THE SRM'S IN CHARGE OF THE ROUT,
AND HE'S GOT THE APG SWAPPED OUT!
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

CHORUS

ONCE UPON A TIME, THERE WAS A JES2,
ANOTHER DEFINITION IS, YOU REALLY GET SCREWED.
WHEN JES3 COMES, IT WILL DO IT TO YOU, BUT
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

JES2'S THERE AND THEY SAY IT WORKS,
NO JES3 BUT THEY CLAIM IT LURKS.
WE SUSPECT JES5 WILL BE WRITTEN BY TURKS.
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

TSO IS ANOTHER BIG MESS,
THE SYSTEM GETS MORE AND THE USER GETS LESS.
LET'S REPLACE THE SUCKER WITH TSS! @BWM78311
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

CHORUS

WITH SMP THEY FUMBLED THE BALL,
AND PL/S MEANS TAKING A FALL.
THE SYSTEMS STAFF IS CLIMBING THE WALL!
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

PDS'S ARE REALLY GOOD FILES
BUT PID HAS DEVELOPED NEW STYLES:
THE SYSTEM NOW IS SHIPPED IN PILES.
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

CHORUS
1
OUR SALESMAN TELLS US THAT IT'S ALL A BREEZE,
THE CONVERSION'S DONE WITH THE GREATEST OF EASE,
OUR DEVELOPMENT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE TO FREEZE, WELL
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

BUT HE DOESN'T MENTION, WITH HIS USUAL TACT,
THE ROUND HEELS WE NEVER SEEM TO LACK,
'CAUSE HE GETS 4K TO KEEP US ON OUR BACKS.
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

IN IBM, EVERYONE'S A BROTHER,
LIKE MOST FAMILIES THEY DON'T TALK TO EACH OTHER
AND MVS CLEARLY STARTS WITH 'MOTHER'
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE MORNING,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

CHORUS

SOMEDAY MAYBE THEY WILL DO IT RIGHT,
BUT NOT WITHOUT ONE HELL OF A FIGHT,
CAN WE EVER GET THEM TO SEE THE LIGHT?
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE FUTURE,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

WHETHER Q OR FS THE RESULT'S THE SAME:
GETTING SCREWED WILL STILL BE THE NAME OF THE GAME.
AND WE ALL KNOW WHERE TO LAY THE BLAME, BUT
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE FUTURE,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

TO OBTAIN OUR INPUT IS THEIR CURRENT AMBITION
SO WE OFFER THIS CRITIQUE OF OUR OWN VOLITION:
COULDN'T IBM LEARN A NEW POSITION?
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER IN THE FUTURE,
MAYBE THINGS WILL GET A LITTLE BETTER.

CHORUS: WORK YOUR FINGERS TO THE BONE AND WHAT DO YOU GET?
BONEY FINGERS, BONEY FINGERS.

WORK YOUR FINGERS TO THE BONE AND WHAT DO YOU GET?
BONEY FINGERS, BONEY FINGERS.

NAME THE IBM PRODUCTS WHICH HAD THE FOLLOWING IDENTIFIERS DURING THEIR DEVELOPMENT:                                      
                                                                                
  AM/I       ______________________     NPL    ______________________            
 JUBILEE    ______________________     OAK    ______________________            
 COMANCHE   ______________________     PEACHTREE ____________________           
 CP         ______________________     27RN   ______________________            

SUPER BONUS QUESTION: WHAT WAS Q10 ???                                     

AM/I
AM/I was the original name for a database system that eventually wound up being cut back in scope and renamed. AM/0. AM/0 came out as VSAM.                                        
                                                                                
NPL
NPL (for New Programming Language) was the original development name for PL/I. As that name became known, England's National Physics Laboratory objected, so the name was changed, briefly, to MPPL (for Multi-Purpose etc.) and then released as PL/I.                                                            
                                                                                
JUBILEE
JUBILEE was the development name for the 3800 laser printer         
                                                                                
OAK
OAK was the name given, following COMANCHE, to the 3850 Mass Storage System                                                      
                                                                                
COMANCHE
COMANCHE was the early development for the 3850 Mass Storage System                                                 
                                                                                
PEACHTREE
PEACHTREE was the development name for the Series/1.                
                                                                                
CP
CP was the original name for VM. (Part of VM is still called CP.)                                                   
                                                                                
27RN
27RN was the development name for the 3705 Communications Controller. (Would you believe the "RN" stood for "Really New?")
                                                                               
Q10
Right after the annoumcement of the System 360. IBM in California produced, for their marketing reps, a list of the most asked questions about it, together with "approved" answers. These were printed on cards, one question per card. Question 10, shown on the card as "Q10" was "Why Operating System/360?". At the next SHARE meeting Thomas Watson was the speaker at the General Session and the SHARE member who introduced him (who shall rename nameless here) said "Here's Mr. Watson, who will give the answer to Q10." Needless to say, Watson didn't know what it was all about, but after the session he asked his aides and, on finding out what was going on, gave orders to have ALL the Q cards recalled and destroyed immediately.
