Music Album Open Up

In the beginning
All the code was free
(oo-yeah!)
It lived in the wild for you and me. (uh-huh!)

Digital freedom
That was the way
The open future is here to stay

Open up
Don’t lock it down
(say what?)
Standards rise
Let’s build this town. (oh-yeah!)

Transparency
The light shines through
Collaborate
It’s what we do! (yeah, yeah!)

Use it
Shape it
Make it right
Fix the bugs through the night. (whoa-oh!)

Participate
Lead the way
The ladder’s ours to climb today. (huh!)

Gather ‘round
We got skills to share
(uh-huh!)
Building futures everywhere. (oo-yeah!)

Hands on keyboards
Minds in sync
Open source
The missing link

Open up
Don’t lock it down
(tell ‘em!)
Standards rise
Let’s build this town

Transparency
The light shines through
Collaborate
It’s what we do! (say it loud!)

Open wins
It always will (woo!)
The ladder climbs with heart and skill

Pass it on
The code stays free
The open world is our legacy! (yeah, baby!)
