Went down to the bank to make a deposit yesterday |
|
The system just went haywire began to overpay |
|
Ten too many zeros on my sixty dollars cash |
|
There I was like Howard Hughes a tycoon in a flash |
|
Trouble with the computer perhaps a faulty switch |
|
Maybe it just likes me and wants to make me rich |
|
Gas bill came this morning I was making toast |
|
I like the odd |
|
hot shower and sometimes Sunday roast |
|
But we'd all sell our houses and go and live in tents |
|
If the gas bill came to four grand and ninety seven cents |
|
Trouble with the computer its' memories gone black |
|
Lucky I refused to pay I've got myself to thank |
|
Trouble with the computer happens every day |
|
So much for brainpower IBM is here to stay |
|
So if you take that plane to Sydney and end up in Taiwan |
|
The automatic pilot he's done something wrong |
|
If your ice cream tastes like tooth paste |
|
And a milk horse wins the race |
|
Computer's lost its logic and it's started to erase |
|
Trouble...Trouble...Trouble...Trouble... |
|
Somewhere someday some smart guy |
|
Will turn around and shout |
|
Give me a pen and paper and I can work it out |
|
But till then we are stuck |
|
With computers going wrong |
|
And if this verse sounds out of tune |
|
A computer wrote this song |
|
Trouble with the computer that's what the man said |
|
Some kind of random error the light is glowin' red |
|
Trouble with the computer the machine will not obey |
|
So much for brainpower IBM is here to stay |
