    "Werewolf" moves across the land
    Router meltdowns close at hand
    Sysadmins in search of blood
    For those who caused this bandwidth flood
    And whosoever took the risk
    But failed to make an extra disc
    Must face the Bastard Op from Hell
    And lose his access to the shell

    The best of Linux now is here
    To kill the FUD and strike with fear
    The hearts of those who steal your rights
    And hide their code far from your sight
    Closed source takes away what's yours
    But you'll never shake the horror
    Until you taste the freedom and
    The power of FEDORA!
