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 father 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.



A Memory was something that you lost with age

A CD was a bank account

And if you had a 3 1/2-in. 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.
