The Wreck of the ConCertino '99

Oh, we built a ConCertino for 1999,
with a hundred filking fen as part of the design.
But Murphy's mighty hand came down hard upon that plan.
It was sad when the head count went down.

CHORUS:
Oh, it was sad, oh, it was sad,
It was sad when the head count went down (to the bottom line, and)
Gary McGath had to face the ConComm's wrath,
It was sad when the head count went down.

Gary told them at ConTata, "Small cons are for the birds,
If we don't get a hundred, you can make me eat my words."
Well, we know it ain't your fault, but we're passin' you the salt.
It was sad when the head count went down.

CHORUS
