Remember When?

COMPUTER WAS SOMETHING ON TV
FROM A SCIENCE FICTION SHOW
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 YOUR MIDDLE FINGER UPRIGHT 
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 1/2′ 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
