If I Only Had a Cray

new words by R. M. Panoff

Tune: If I Only Had a Brain

I could while away the hours
Raisin' x to higher powers
I'd sum sums all the day
On my lunch I would be munchin'
While my numbahs are a-crunchin'
If I only had a Cray
	
I could mastah my compunction
To integrate some function
Wit' bound'ries Dirichlet
My heart would go pitter pattah
As I simulated mattah
If I only had a Cray.
	
	Oh, I'd use MPI for memory's near the core.
	I'd compute things I never did before,
	And recompile, and run some more.

I would use a simple vectah, 
To represent a sectah
Of a function or array,
Rows of lights you'll get a blinkin'
In the cornfields, land o' Lincoln,
If you only had a Cray.
