do you really think that's all that she wrote
that they have the answer, that we should all gloat
the cream of the crop is yesterday's news
there's a race going on and you might just lose
download that new update or buy that i phone
they know you must have it, like a dog to a bone
it's going through trials they'll work out the bugs
you have to expect that, you say with a shrug
it's been outsourced for years and made in taiwan
but it's too late now, you're their little pawn
a house of cards is on which we stand
how long will it be 'fore we all need a hand
you're sure it won't break, you have faith in this scheme
what will it take to break out of this dream
and you have those passwords to keep it locked tight
do you sleep at night thinking everything's right
that hacker, that spammer never nods off a bit
he'll take all your money and make you submit
it's certain to freeze, destined to fail
just as you're one click away from checking your mail
it may not be pretty when it all goes to sh**
in the darkness is where you will soon sit
you play in a minefield of viral infection
your ipad has quite the bacterial collection
you'll be two seconds shy of sending your quote
and wishing you could find that antidote
cause when all of a sudden it just doesn't work
i bet you'll fall apart and just go bezerk
if your computer ends up in a big silent crash
just put it carefully outside, there in the trash
Oh, how I feel this one--the stories I could tell of lost data, but I won't, because you have already done such an enjoyable job of it!
ReplyDeletethank you Steve!! I got a lot of inspiration from Asimov's I JUST MAKE THEM UP, SEE!
DeleteI wrote Submission because of this too.
