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 a floppy disk was something
Terribly wrong in your back.

Compress was something you did to garbage, Not something you did to a file.
And if you unzipped anything in public, You'd be in jail for awhile!

Log on was adding wood to a 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!
