They could have been taking a swipe at IBM who already had this: https://www.ibm.com/ibm/history/exhibits/music/music_IA1.html https://www.ibm.com/ibm/history/exhibits/music/music_IA1.htm... Lift up our proud and loyal voices, Sing out in accents strong and true, With hearts and hands to you devoted, And inspiration ever new; Your ties of friendship cannot sever, Your glory time will never stem, We will toast a name that lives forever, Hail to the I.B.M. Our voices swell in admiration; Of T. J. Watson proudly sing; He'll ever be our inspiration, To him our voices loudly ring; The I.B.M. will sing the praises, Of him who brought us world acclaim, As the volume of our chorus raises, Hail to his honored name.
