Double Bucky

Double bucky, you're the one!

You make my keyboard lots of fun.

Double bucky, an additional bit or two:

(Vo-vo-de-o!)

Control and meta, side by side,

Augmented ASCII, nine bits wide!

Double bucky! Half a thousand glyphs, plus a few!

Oh,

I sure wish that I

Had a couple of

Bits more!

Perhaps a

Set of pedals to

Make the number of

Bits four:

Double double bucky!

Double bucky, left and right

OR'd together, outta sight!

Double bucky, I'd like a whole word of

Double bucky, I'm happy I heard of

Double bucky, I'd like a whole word of you!
