Within every electronic device
|
There lies a seed
|
Dormant and waiting to be
|
Released
|
Somewhere between eighteen months and two years
|
It will sprout
|
And begin to choke the life out
|
|
And if you've got an iPod,
|
You know exactly what we're talking about
|
You pressed the power button
|
And what happened was nothin'
|
iTunes won't even see it
|
Now you wish you'd warranted it
|
The Doom Seed has germinated
|
Your iPod shall not be recessitated
|
|
Now you gotta figure out whatcha gon do with your dead iPod
|
Write a eulogy and bury it in your backyard
|
Even though it's broke you can pretend like it's not
|
|
To avoid conversation with strangers at the bus stop
|
|
Use it as a weapon if you're being attacked-
|
You know what, on second thought, scratch that
|
|
Tape it to your body
|
Call it a bod-switch
|
|
Put it in a hoagie
|
Call it an iPod-wich
|
|
A paper weight is lame unless
|
There's a fan on your desk,
|
And even in that case
|
A man hole cover works best
|
|
Or keep it simple 'cause less is more;
|
Put it in a shoebox in the back of a drawer
|
Then 50 years from today
|
Your grandkids will find it and say:
|
|
"You listened to music on this? You mean when you were a kid,
|
you didn't have music uploaded directly to your brain!?"
|
And you'll say "Naw, we just had iPods."
