The Ballad of Bill Arceneaux, Reprise

Come and listen to a story about a NASA engineer named Bill,
A poor JSC guy, pushed off to the side until,
One day he was mindin' his own operations business,
And up through the phone came a bubblin mess.

Ares 1-X broken that is, screwed up, MSFC style.

Well the first thing you know ol' Bill's in the air,
Kinfolk said "Bill, the loads are too high to bear"
Said "LaRC is the place you ought to be"
So he loaded up the truck and moved to Lang-el-ly.

Rocket, breaking up. all over Brevard country.

Well now its time to wish luck to Bill and all his kin.
He's hoping the whole thing is really delayed again.
So Norm or the Air Force can cancel this reality,
And he can go back to being the king of operability.

Job's done here that is. Set a spell, Take your shoes off.

I don't know who that guy is, but, i'm willing to bet Hack is fired within a month.

Any individual named in connection with Direct, R&S, Mars underground or any other NASA splinter group is subject to swift and stern punishment.
