From ARPANET to Internet

[Verse] A spark in the labs, the Pentagon’s code, DARPA’s child, where the data flowed. Nodes lit up like fireflies in the night, Packets dancing, taking digital flight. Cold War whispers in electric veins, Scientists dreaming through copper chains. [Chorus] From ARPANET to Internet, the lines connect, A revolution that we all respect. Wires hum, the future’s set, From ARPANET to Internet! [Verse 2] Protocols crafted, TCP/IP’s throne, The language of machines, now flesh and bone. They broke down the walls, they opened the gates, Tim Berners-Lee whispered, "The Web awaits." Modems screamed, phone lines moaned, The digital dawn—it found a home. [Prechorus] Dreamers coding, hands in the air, Building bridges from here to there. [Chorus] From ARPANET to Internet, the lines connect, A revolution that we all respect. Wires hum, the future’s set, From ARPANET to Internet! [Bridge] Governments, geeks, a global affair, Satellites spinning, signals in the air. From military roots to the public sphere, The world got smaller, year by year. Chatrooms buzzing, emails fly, A network woven beneath the sky.
