   Back when software came in boxes.

      I got my first real Pentium

      Bought it at the local PC shop

      Played Rollercoaster Tycoon, CD-ROM straight from it's huge box, on it 'til my fingers bled

      Was the summer of '99

           I got my first real Pentium
           Bought it at the local shop
           Played Quake till my fingers ached
           Was the summer of '99
         
           Me and some guys from school
           Had a LAN and we played real hard
           Jonny lost, the network failed
           Should've upgraded our thinnet
         
           Oh, when I look back now
           Ninety-eight was more fun than XP
           And if I had the choice
           My kids wouldn't be stuck with chromebooks
           I really miss my old PC
         

         ...
