Lyrics

  1. Switches hummin in the server rack Packets flow but they bounce right back You check the link, you check the stress But the root of pain is D-N-S
  2. Ping the host, trace the path Every hop just makes you laugh Gateway clean, routes express Still the culprit D-N-S
  3. Name to number, that is the key Translate words to I-P When the record fails the test Guess who broke it D-N-S
  4. Logs are scrollin, tempers rise Coffee burnin tired eyes Every admin knows the guess Before the proof its D-N-S
  5. Keeping networks green can cause some distress Number to names can be a source of the mess It's okay to scream it get it off your chest Cause the network admin knows that it's always D-N-S
  6. Keeping networks green can cause some distress Number to names can be a source of the mess It's okay to scream it get it off your chest Cause the network admin knows that it's always D-N-S
  7. Tell me why do names go to I-P While the ones it hurts are you and me Query sent but none come back Somewhere lost along the stack
  8. You cant drain the swamp to stop the crash So pump those bits and clear that cache Flush the resolver test the press Watch it vanish D-N-S
  9. It seemed so simple with just hosts Static lines and trusted posts But scale the net and now the stress Comes riding back as D-N-S
  10. Recursive calls and root zone maps Tiny records giant traps One bad entry one bad guess And down it goes through D-N-S
  11. Say it loud now spell the stress D N S D N S
  12. Packets fine the links progress But the answer waits in D N S
  13. Keeping networks green can cause some distress Number to names can be a source of the mess It's okay to scream it get it off your chest Cause the network admin knows that it's always D-N-S
  14. Keeping networks green can cause some distress Number to names can be a source of the mess It's okay to scream it get it off your chest Cause the network admin knows that it's always D-N-S
  15. Ping succeeds and routes impress But when things break remember this From lab to cloud the final guess Is usually always D-N-S
