A computer was something on TV From a science-fiction show of note A window was something you hated to clean And ram was the cousin of a goat

Meg was the name of my girlfriend And gig was a job for the nights Now they all mean different things And that really mega bytes.

An application was for employment A program was a TV show A cursor used profanity A keyboard was a piano.

Memory was something that you lost with age A CD was a bank account And if you had a 3 inch Floppy You hoped nobody found out.

Compress was something you did to the garbage Not something you did to a file And if you unzipped anything in public You’d be in jail for a while.

Log on was adding wood to the fire Hard drive was a long trip on the road A mouse pad was where a mouse lived And a backup happened to your commode.

Cut you did with a pocket knife Paste you did with glue A web was a spider’s home And a virus was the flu.

I guess I’ll stick to my pad and paper And the memory in my head I hear nobody’s been killed in a computer crash but when it happens they wish they were dead.
