Globals The Jealousies of Local Variables i've never seen a constant in the flesh Cut my teeth on mem-mapped files, through a proxy and i'm not proud of my address at the bottom of the stack, no segment envy and every nano's like context, stack frame, passing an assertion malloc fork a multithread diversion we don't care, we're grabbin' storage space for our dreams and every nano's like setup, loop, and increment the counter write the value, hope it gets returned but we don't care, we haven't got the cycles left to spare and we'll never be globals (globals) we're allocated locally that kind of scope just ain't for us we're mostly cached, don't touch the bus let me alloc a pointer (pointer) a taste of immortality and baby you'll live (you'll live, you'll live) till we free your memory. (dealloc) My friends and I are local code (clock... clock... clock...) We count the loops, hold your work for a moment. And everyone who calls us knows that we're fine with this, persistence sounds so funny. and every nano's like context, stack frame, passing an assertion malloc fork a multithread diversion we don't care, we're grabbin' storage space for our dreams and every nano's like setup, loop, and increment the counter write the value, hope it gets returned but we don't care, we haven't got the cycles left to spare and we'll never be globals (globals) we're allocated locally that kind of scope just ain't for us we're mostly cached, don't touch the bus let me alloc a pointer (pointer) a taste of immortality and baby you'll live (you'll live, you'll live) till we free your memory. (dealloc) Oooh ooh oh We're just a little state machine and I'm in love with code that's clean Oooh ooh oh You put the retval over there, we haven't got the cycles left to spare and we'll never be globals (globals) we're allocated locally that kind of scope just ain't for us we're mostly cached, don't touch the bus let me alloc a pointer (pointer) a taste of immortality and baby you'll live (you'll live, you'll live) till we free your memory.
