security idiot

don't wanna be a security idiot
don't wanna use the same password everywhere
don't wanna let some stranger see my pin code
or infect my system with malware

welcome to a new kind of problem
constant threats and no one can stop them
where computers aren't meant to be ok
keyloggers, rootkits, spear phishing
kids are the ones we keep wishing
were still our primary foes

well maybe i'm infected with viruses
i'm not part of the protection business
finding threats in every nook and recess
our illusions have shattered into pieces

welcome to a new kind of problem
constant threats and no one can stop them
where computers aren't meant to be ok
keyloggers, rootkits, spear phishing
kids are the ones we keep wishing
were still our primary foes

don't wanna be a security idiot
clicking links controlled by the bad guys
installing updates that came unrequested
or falling for telephone support scams

welcome to a new kind of problem
constant threats and no one can stop them
where computers aren't meant to be ok
keyloggers, rootkits, spear phishing
kids are the ones we keep wishing
were still our primary foes

(this is, of course, a parody of the following song)
