You Have New Mail

By: unknown
Original: "A Whole New World" (Aladdin)

Elm: I can show you your mail;
take you letter by letter.
Tell me user when did you
last let the filter decide.
I can open your files;
look at all of those headers!
Forward or backward I can sort by
date or name or time.
Chorus: You have new mail!
A brand new message here for you!
No one to tell us "no!
Disk overflow!" or say
"You're over quota!"
User: I have new mail!
From unseen sites I never knew!
But with my viewer here
It's crystal clear
That I can read all my new mail with you!
Elm: Unbelievable size!
Indescribable format!
Flames and postings come mingled
From an endless usenet site!
User: I have new mail!
Elm: (Don't you dare close that file)
User: A hundred thousand things to read
Elm: (Set biff to y -- it get's better)
User: I've got to save it all,
We'll have a ball!
Just put it in this subdirectory.
Both: I/You have new mail!
And brand new networks to peruse
I'll log in anywhere
There&39;s time to spare
Oh let me read all this new mail with you!
Elm: You have new mail!
User: Come on let's read!
Both: A thousand sites!
For you and me....
