Once upon a motherboard Where things were simple, nothing more Legacy BIOS, my old friend Our time together's near its end Those simple menus, black and white Soon replaced by UEFI's light But I remember how you'd start With that beep that touched my heart Oh, legacy BIOS, fading away Like morning dew on a summer day No Secure Boot or GPT Just you and me, so wild and free Those 16 bits were all we needed Now you're slowly being succeeded Remember POST codes, one by one? And cylinder counting, oh what fun! No fancy graphics, no mouse here Just arrow keys held oh so dear Four partitions were enough back then When life was simpler, way back when Times are changing, moving on Soon you'll be completely gone But in my heart you'll always be The one that first booted me Oh, legacy BIOS, fading away Like morning dew on a summer day No Secure Boot or GPT Just you and me, so wild and free Those 16 bits were all we needed Now you're slowly being succeeded Sweet dreams, my simple friend Till we POST again
