|
Last night something pretty bad happened. |
|
We lost a friend, |
|
All shocked and broken, |
|
Shut down, exploded. |
|
|
|
JED-E3 is what we first called him. |
|
Then it was "Jed," |
|
But Jed's system's dead. |
|
Therefore, so's Jed. |
|
|
|
We assembled him in the Kitchen, |
|
Made out of this and |
|
Made out of that and |
|
Whatever was at hand. |
|
|
|
When we finished Jed we were so proud. |
|
We celebrated, |
|
We congratulated, |
|
At what we'd created. |
|
|
|
Jed could run or walk, sing or talk, and |
|
Compile thoughts, and |
|
Solve lots of problems. |
|
We learned so much from him. |
|
|
|
A couple years went by and something happened. |
|
We gave Jed less attention. |
|
We had new inventions. |
|
We left for a convention. |
|
|
|
Jed had found our booze and drank every drop. |
|
He fizzled and popped, |
|
He rattled and knocked, |
|
Finally he just stopped. |
